Impressive Rafael Nadal, for me, the best sportsman of the history in Spain.
But not only as sportsman; as person is even better. Always humble, always giving his biggest effort, always kind. 9 Roland Garros are not scope of many, and he, in spite of not being to 100 % physically, it has been able to sacrifice oneself. Gracias, Rafa. And thank you also to Novac Djokovic for his effort and your sportsmanship. [hidden image - please register] |
