Rafael Nadal Announces Retirement: One of the greatest players in tennis history, Rafael Nadal, has formally declared his retirement from the professional game. The 22-time Grand Slam winner announced on social media that he will play his last match in November of 2024 at the Davis Cup Finals. The video was really moving. Since being professional in 2001, Rafael Nadal has had an incredible career, exemplified by his 14 Roland Garros wins and his memorable matches against opponents such as Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer.
Nadal thanked his teammates, supporters, and crew in an emotional letter. He thought back to the difficulties he had encountered recently, particularly the injuries that limited his ability to perform. His final on-court performance was in the men's doubles competition at the 2024 Summer Olympics, where he played for Spain with Carlos Alcaraz.
Returning to the Davis Cup Finals, where he won his first major title in 2004, Nadal sees the competition as an appropriate way to round up his career.
