Former German number one tennis player Boris Becker has said that Spanish superstar Rafael Nadal is capable of beating Roger Federer's record haul of 17 Grand Slams.
According to Sport24, Becker pointed out that this year Nadal had returned to his top form and now has 13 titles to his credit, adding that he is 27 and does not intend to stop there.
The German said that Nadal is capable of getting more and is a great competitor, adding that after a long lay-off with a left knee injury, he had almost achieved a miracle by becoming world number one again.
Becker was talking about Nadal at an event linked to the German's participation in the Doha Goals sports forum in Qatar.
