Nadal

Rafael Nadal was present at a ceremony organized by Mundo Deportivo media, where he received a tribute.

He gave an update on his state of health: "I'm not in too much pain now, I'm not pushing myself too hard.

Now I can live with very little pain, and that's very important to me.

In the end, going up and down stairs normally is a very important step forward for me in my daily life, being able to live with the peace of mind of not having much pain.

I've just retired, only three months ago, and any change takes time.

Personally, I was afraid of this change, but I'm very happy in this new stage."

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
