Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal almost missed a flight he was boarding for his Asia tour, according to reports.
On a fan website, several tennis enthusiasts said the star should fly privately and the problem happened partly because of the demand on him when he comes to the airports and likes to please all his fans.
A few days ago, Nadal declined an offer for a special plane to fly him for Spain's Davis Cup fixtures.
Another fan praised the Spanish superstar for being too nice and patient, while someone said that we are all human and perhaps he was thinking of his next tennis match, which made him miss the flight.
