Steve Johnson has spoken about Rafael Nadal again on the Nothing Mayor podcast, recounting the fear he experienced when facing him. Johnson faced Nadal at the 2015 Mutua Madrid Open and has humorously reflected on it being the only match he played (and lost) against the Spaniard. "You know exactly what he's going to do, and you prepare for it, but he always finds a way to get the best of you on the court. He is the greatest competitor in the history of the sport," he admitted.

Furthermore, Johnson revealed his biggest fear going into that match: not winning a single game. "The idea of losing 6-0 6-0 in front of all those spectators and being mocked terrified me. Fortunately, I won the first game, which calmed me down because if you go down 4-0 or 5-0... There was a lot of fear in my eyes and very little in his. That said, it would have been hilarious to lose 6-0 6-0 and remember it a decade later," concluded the American player, who eventually fell to Nadal 6-4 6-3.
