The Spanish tennis legend will play his final games at the Davis Cup later this year

Rafael Nadal, the legendary Spanish tennis player and winner of 22 Grand Slam singles titles, has announced his retirement from professional tennis, with his final match to take place at the Davis Cup final later this year.

The 38-year-old expressed his excitement about ending his career on this stage, as it brings his journey full circle—his first major triumph came in the 2004 Davis Cup final in Seville.

Nadal’s retirement follows a challenging period of injuries, which forced him to miss key tournaments, including the 2023 French Open.

His last Grand Slam victory was at the French Open in 2022, where he further cemented his legacy with a record-breaking 14 titles on the Parisian clay, boasting an incredible 112-4 win-loss record at Roland Garros.

The Davis Cup knockout phase will take place from November 19-24, marking the end of one of the most illustrious careers in tennis history.
