Nadal, whats up with the water bottles?

I'm sure this has been discussed before but I never paid much attention until recently. I watched Nadal play one of his matches in Madrid (hence; I don't watch him play much anymore) and noticed him lining up his water bottles. I mean he was really focused. lol. Has he ever publicly addressed this? Its even funnier for me because I suffer from a mild case of OCD, hasn’t been diagnosed but I do weird things like that.

    it's not OCD it might look like it but it not, tennis players can get superstitious and do the same rituals because they believe that's what helps them in tournaments, prime example some player don't want to walk on some lines because they think if they do it might be bad luck for them.

    Well let me tell you, OCD is actually a mental problem, and it can seriously affect peoples lives, so i doubt he has OCD.

    A lot of people say they have OCD, but you can never know until it's diagnosed. So really he is just being neat. I like things in order, so maybe he just does too.
