Many of us still remember the time when we waited for Rafael Nadal to join Twitter. It finally happened on July 29, 2011 at 9:44 am CET, but it wasn’t until this day three years ago, August 2, 2011, at 2:52 pm CET that he sent out his first tweet.

Our champion now happens to be the most followed tennis player on Twitter –  he has 6,5 million followers. If you are not following Rafa yet… what are you waiting for? You can find his account at @RafaelNadal.
