Hatred or Truth, Rafael Nadal called out for ‘not doing’ three things like Novak Djokovic
Rafael Nadal has been called out by Bosnian Damir Dzumhur for failing to help other tennis players in the same way that Novak Djokovic does.

Nadal has had the upper hand on Djokovic on the court this year having won two major titles to the 35-year-old’s one.
Hatred or Truth, Rafael Nadal called out for ‘not doing’ three things like Novak Djokovic

The two legends are now set to line up alongside each other this week as they represent Team Europe in the Laver Cup at the O2 Arena in London.

However, it appears that Dzumhur did not get this memo and he has called out Nadal for his actions toward other players on the tour. He believes Djokovic does more to help the sport – something which is not replicated by Nadal.
