Rafa Nadal Academy: Swiss tennis great Roger Federer wrote an emotional letter for his close friend Rafael Nadal as the Spaniard tennis ace is set to bid adieu to the sport.

Nadal, known for his dominance on the clay courts of Roland Garros, is set to retire after the Davis Cup drawing curtains to his remarkable career, which saw him win 22 Grand Slam titles.

The Spaniard will be the second of the 'Big three' of tennis to hang up his racket next to fellow legend Federer, who retired in 2022.
