On Friday, FanJolt's Twitter handle disclosed that Nadal would be answering fan questions in a live chat. The Spaniard turned up for the event as scheduled but couldn't quite figure out how the site works. He proceeded to smile awkwardly as he struggled with the platform, where celebrities can set up a live stream to chat with their fans.Nadal even conceded during the live chat that he was fully aware of his backwardness when it came to technology. The Spaniard didn't get a response from his fans after making that assertion, which prompted him to jokingly ask if anyone was even interested in talking to him.&quot;Hey guys, let's try to keep moving on, no?
