Nadal honoured in Malaga ahead of Davis Cup finals
In a few days' time, Rafael Nadal will retire from the world of professional tennis. The former world No. 1 will bid farewell in front of his home crowd in Malaga, during the Davis Cup finals.
The atmosphere will be just right for what will be one of the major tennis events at the end of 2024. And even before the finals get underway, the organizers have put up a giant poster on the competition stadium reading "Merci Rafa" (see publication below).
Other parts of the city of Malaga were also decorated in the same way. A way of marking the importance of the event that the tennis world will be experiencing next week.
