Former tennis macho man Pat Cash admits that Rafael Nadal manages to look pretty in pink at the French Open.
The former Wimbledon champion says that Nadal's fashion statement belies a supreme confidence as he bids for a record fifth straight title at Roland Garros.
"Marching out to play in pink transmits a signal of total assurance from a man in his prime," Cash told London's Sunday Times. "Rafa's not taking victory for granted because any champion who does that is destined to fail.
"Yet he knows if he does everything right, puts in maximum effort and brings his true game to the court then it will take a truly exceptional performance to deny him another title.
"Three rounds gone and there's no reason not to believe that he's going to become the first man to win five in a row."
Cash said the shy Spaniard who sparked fashion trend with his former muscle shirts and pirate pants, is breaking new ground along with his clothing company. "If he is bold enough to wear that shirt on court, and prepared to be the brunt of all the wisecracks from the hordes of Spanish players, he must be even more supremely confident at Roland Garros than I could ever have imagined."

ah please ..im sorry rafa fans but i sooo disagree ....i tot the outfit when it came to color selection was ridiculous ! ....pink in a grandslam....what u wear when u getting on to court ....a sweater ...windbreaker or whatever ....is fine ...but on court ...i think the attire should be non controversial especially when you are talking bout mens tennis ! ...womens tennis ...whole other story ..
i cant imagine roger or djoker showing on court in pink ...they would be crucified.... sometimes i think nike is really making a joke out of this guy ....i wonder if they are forced to wear the outfits ?

My sister saw Rafa's shirt in a shop a few days ago. Her verdict is that it's EXTREMELY comfortable. In fact, comfortable enough to consider buying. For herself. Or my mother. Just... not for a guy. Yeeeeah.

I didnt like the pink shirt from the very moment it burned my eyes. I hope this color is dumped in trash bin of tennis history along with the match itself.
