Rafael Nadal will never play professional tennis again. The Majorcan said goodbye on November 19 during the Davis Cup with Spain. Since then, the men have been flocking and recently, he received a nice message from his former coach, Carlos Moya, who praises the man’s impeccable state of mind at the 14 Roland-Garros.
We no longer present Rafael Nadal. The Spaniard is one of the greatest tennis players in history. A clay court specialist, he won 22 Grand Slam titles, including a record 14 at Roland-Garros. His career was also marked by a legendary rivalry with Roger Federer et Novak Djokovic but above all an impeccable state of mind.

In comments reported by We Love Tennis, Carlos Moyathe former coach of Rafael Nadaltestifies: “ Rafa’s influence on tennis will endure long after his retirement. A global superstar, he was loved by fans around the world thanks to his dedication, resilience and personality. He helped tennis advance the game with his voice for the betterment of the sport. His self-control is a light, a reference for all young players in the world. In 1,307 matches on Tour, Rafa has never broken a racket. He always respected his opponents. A defeat was his responsibility. He was the first to compliment his opponent. »
“He was the ultimate fighter”
« He was the ultimate fighter: tenacious, intense, energetic in every fight. He treated everyone the same, from the volunteer to the tournament director. He was a role model, on and off the field. An inspiration for everyone, he continues.His work with the Rafa Nadal Foundation and his Academy will make his legacy even greater in the future, for new generations. The sport can only be grateful that an icon like Nadal has played a leading role for so long. It’s Rafael Nadal. And that’s his number one story. »
