Rafael Nadal and professional tennis are officially and definitively over. Beaten by Van de Zandschulp, Nadal then witnessed his nation's elimination from the Davis Cup in the doubles decider.

As tributes continue to pour in, it was Rod Laver, a living legend of our sport and the last player to complete the calendar Grand Slam, who was keen to highlight the Majorcan's immense career.

In a post published on X, he declared: "Rafa, watching you play has been a privilege. Your legacy will remain that of one of the greatest players of all time. Thank you for countless unforgettable moments and for setting a standard of excellence that will inspire generations to come.

I wish you happiness and success in this new chapter."

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.
