Adriano Panatta makes comparison between Federer and Nastase

The Former world No.4 and 1976 French Open winner Adriano Panetta believes there are some similarities between Ilie Nastase and Roger Federer. “Comfortable, fast and resilient, with a natural gift that would have allowed them, in a 100 metres Olympic final, to get better out of blocks at the start and to take the lead within the first three steps,” said Panetta. “Yeah, only three, which makes a difference in tennis.”
