Rafael Nadal also moved at the press conference after Roger Federer’s last “appearance”, stressing that he was “leaving” an important part of his own career with the Swiss.
Rafael Nadal shocked with his statements at the press conference after Roger Federer’s “career farewell” in a match for the Laver Cup in which the two tennis greats played together.
The 36-year-old Spanish champion said, among other things, that an important part of his life is leaving together with Federer, as the two have dueled several times in their careers for important titles.
“It was a great honor to be a part of this amazing moment in the history of our sport and to have shared so much with it over so many years.
An important part of my life goes with Roger because he was by my side or opposite me in big moments. So it was touching to see the family, the whole world. It’s hard to describe. It was an amazing moment.
Our pen made our games and rivalry possibly one of the longest and most interesting in history. I believe that our personal relationships are getting better every year. It’s a very beautiful thing after what we’ve been through together and what we’ve fought for as rivals“Said the Spanish champion, among other things, about Federer.
