Rafael Nadal’s career began in Mallorca, on the red-clay courts sprinkled throughout his hometown of Manacor. And he still calls this place home, training and leading the next generation at the Rafa Nadal Academy.

If I arrive all right there in Mallorca☺ I shall keep you up to date with his movements. Fiona in Paris
I’m always impressed by Rafa. How appreciative he is of his past, how hard he works for his present and how carefully and thoughtfully and patiently he’s planned for his future on the beautiful island that is his beloved home.
What drives him? Not fortune or fame or greatness. It’s being the best he can be, doing what he loves among the people he loves so much.
Yes, I am going to write to him in Spanish that I like this vidéoclip 😀 of Manacor, see the Tenis Club, the centre of town, all the places I have walked round many times ☺ I am going back this week, hope to stay for a month but we don t know when he will comé back from US Open. Shall wait for him 🌞🌴 Fiona in Paris

Love it! So fun to see photos of him as a little boy, then growing up and starting his career, trophies. So good to hear how appreciative he is of his family and friends, and how committed he is to them, to his home, and to helping the kids. ♥️
