Mauresmo Roland Garros

Questioned during a press conference and reported by Punto de Break, the Roland-Garros tournament director, Amélie Mauresmo, reflected on the tribute to the legend Rafael Nadal, which she described as the highlight of the fortnight:

"The most historic moment was Rafa on the center court, receiving affection from everyone—the crowd, the organization, and the other great players of his era. Seeing how emotional he was at that moment. I think those images, the stadium, the colors, the harmony in all of it—that’s probably what will remain, yes."

The former player also continued by expressing her wish to keep collaborating with the Spaniard, who notably narrated this year’s tournament trailer:

"As we’ve said, it’s a shared desire between the tournament and Rafa to have some form of collaboration. Of course, we first focused on what would happen this year with the communication campaign and the tribute, but naturally, we’ll resume discussions so that this shared history the tournament has had with Rafa over the past 20 years can continue in some way. So yes, there’s a mutual desire, and we’ll find a way to make it happen—I’m confident.
