Men's Tennis: 8 Spanish players who have won Grand Slams

# Rafael Nadal

Rafael Nadal - King Of Clay

The only active player on the list is one who practically needs no introduction - Rafael Nadal. Arguably, the greatest fighter that tennis has ever had, Nadal's temperament and composure on court is unparalleled. Nadal, who comes from a family of accomplished sportsmen, was schooled by his uncle Toni Nadal, who inculcated in Rafa a sense of discipline and dedication. Unlike many other players, in his entire tennis career, Nadal has never smashed a racquet.

With 17 Grand Slam titles (2nd all-time) including a record 11 French Open titles, 33 ATP Masters 1000 trophies (an all-time record), 80 ATP Singles titles, 2 Olympic Gold medals in both singles and doubles combined and over a 100 million USD in career prize money, Nadal's numbers are simply breathtaking.

Not to mention, Nadal is also Spain's most successful Davis Cup player of all-time, helping his country win 4 Davis Cup crowns. At 32, Nadal still has a few years left in the tank and no one is close to his level on clay especially.
