November 20, 2024: November 19, 2024 (malaga) The Davis Cup that started this Tuesday in Málaga knows to farewell. And it will be the last professional tournament of Rafa Nadal before his retirement. That’s why the 38-year-old tennis player, one of the best in history, broke down to tears when he heard the anthem of Spain at the start of the match at the Martín Carpena Sports Palace. An emotional and very intense moment in which Nadal has been wrapped up by his whole family: from his parents to his wife, his son and his mother-in-law.
