It seems Rafa was thinking, ‘If there’s any chance, any way I can return, I will.’ But ultimately, it all depends on his body, which unfortunately hasn’t been cooperating lately. Whether he chooses to have a farewell at the Laver Cup, much like Roger Federer did with that incredible celebration, remains to be seen. Many believed he might opt for a grand farewell at the Olympics or at Roland Garros on Philippe-Chatrier, representing his country. But the truth is, we just don’t know.
As the former world number one attempts to conclude his career in a fitting manner, it’s clear that achieving this dream won’t be easy. However, fans around the world still hope that Rafa will astonish us one last time. Regardless of what he decides, Rafael Nadal will forever be recognized as one of the greatest athletes in history.
