Spanish newspaper ABC has chosen Rafael Nadal as the greatest athlete in the country’s history, followed by cyclist Miguel Indurain in second place and basketball player Pau Gasol in third. The newspaper asked 100 people of prominence in sports to vote on which athletes deserve the honor the most.
In its latest edition, dated June 16, 2013, the newspaper describes how and why the recipients were chosen. Congratulations, Rafa!
