Rafael who is one of tennis's "Big Three" (5)

I believe the answer is:

nadal

(Other definitions for nadal that I've seen before include "Rafael __, Spanish tennis player" , "court figure" , "Top tennis player" , "tennis champion" , "Star with a 30 [RACKET]" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
