Rafael Nadal Retires After Davis Cup Finals
Rafael Nadal officially bid farewell to professional tennis at the Davis Cup Finals in Malaga, where he lost his final match to Botic van de Zandschulp, leading to Spain's elimination. The post-match ceremony featured video tributes from tennis stars like Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams, but notable absences from Djokovic, Federer, and Murray sparked criticism regarding the organization of the event. Nadal’s coach, Carlos Moya, and Spain's Davis Cup captain, David Ferrer, expressed disappointment over the ceremony, describing it as 'shabby' and 'underwhelming' for a player of Nadal's stature. Defending the arrangements, tournament director Feliciano Lopez insisted they did their best to honor Nadal’s wishes, emphasizing that he chose the Davis Cup for his farewell. Despite criticisms, the International Tennis Federation maintained that they delivered the ceremony Nadal desired. The event concluded with Italy winning the Davis Cup title, showcasing Nadal's lasting impact on the sport even as he stepped away.
