Nagal likes being on tour, as well as travelling on vacation.
In the recent ATP rankings, Sumit Nagal is now World No 129. After playing on centre court at the US Open against Roger Federer, the 22-year-old has seen a rise in his ranking. He told ET Panache in an interview that he hopes to visit Japan soon.
"I grew up watching Japanese anime. I still do watch, I am a big fan. Unfortunately, I have never been to Japan. I would like to go once and spend a few weeks there. My favourite show was 'Dragonball Z'. I watched a lot of 'Beyblade' and 'Pokemon' as well," he said.
Gaming is also another thing that Nagal likes to do when he is not playing or practising tennis.
Nagal is a fan of Japanese anime. "I like watching videos online. I am into gaming as well. I play online on my computer," he added.
But it is travel that never seems to tire Nagal. He likes being on tour as well as visiting places for holidays.

Djokovic once again made news when Andre Agassi joined his coaching team as head coach in mid-2017. In 2018, the pair parted ways. In a statement Agassi said, “With only the best intentions I tried to help Novak. Far too often, we found ourselves agreeing to disagree. I wish him only the best moving forward.” In later interviews, Agassi said their parting ways stemmed largely from the player’s reluctance to embrace his guidance and ideas.
