Roger Federer wrote an emotional post on social media on Tuesday, paying tribute to Rafael Nadal who is set to retire from professional tennis at Davis Cup Finals in Malaga, Spain, this week.
“Rafa, I know you’re focused on the last stretch of your epic career. We will talk when it’s done. For now, I just want to congratulate your family and team, who all played a massive role in your success. And I want you to know that your old friend is always cheering for you, and will be cheering just as loud for everything you do next,” wrote the 43-year-old Federer, who retired from the sport two years ago with 20 Majors to his name.
