Kudermetova on Nadal's retirement: He was an example to us all.

On November 19, Rafael Nadal played the last match of his illustrious career.

Playing singles in the Davis Cup quarter-final against the Netherlands, the Spaniard gave his all, but ended up losing quite logically to Botic van de Zandschulp (6-4, 6-4).

Tributes abounded after La Roja's elimination at home in Malaga.

In an interview with Championat, Russian player Veronika Kudermetova also spoke of the Majorcan's retirement.

"Of course, I read the news about the farewell ceremony. It's sad that such legends are leaving the sport.

Nadal was an example to us all, not only in sport and in the world of tennis, but also as a person with a capital P.

It's a shame that we and the new generation of players won't be able to see him play on the court. It's sad when such deserving people go!" she elaborated.
