More than two dozen lucky middle schoolers on Randall's Island now have the privilege of calling tennis player Rafael Nadal their mentor and honorary coach.
Nadal is one of the greatest tennis players of all time and is known for his killer topspin and lefty forehand.
"It feels great when a professional is here watching you, and he has a really great attitude," one student said."I wanna play him and if he goes easy on me I'll probably beat him," said one young tennis player. For one kid, this was her first time picking up a tennis racket and she got a one-on-one lesson with Nadal.Dinkins did forget Nadal's name, but she didn't forget her lesson.
