Many players paid tribute to the former world No. 7. His compatriot Rafael Nadal is one of them.
He declared on his social networks: "We had some great battles on the tennis courts and with Spain in the Davis Cup.
Congratulations on your superb career. I hope you'll now be able to enjoy your family and your new challenges even more.
See you soon."
