'I have left a legacy': Emotional Rafa retires

China Daily  

Spain's Rafael Nadal watches as a tribute is played following his last match as a professional in the Davis Cup quarterfinals at the Martin Carpena Sports Hall in Malaga, Spain, in the early hours of Wednesday morning. AP Rafael Nadal bit his lower lip and his reddened eyes welled with tears as he stood alongside his Davis Cup teammates for Spain's national anthem in Malaga, Spain, Tuesday before what he — and everyone — knew might be the last match of his career. And it was during an on-court, post-match ceremony to honor Nadal that he cried and cried, at the singsong chorus of "Raaa-faaa" from the spectators, at the video showing highlights from his more than two decades on tour and the collection of recorded tributes from current or former players such as his "Big Three" rivals Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic, Serena Williams, Conchita Martinez and Andy Murray, and stars from other sports such as golf's Sergio Garcia or soccer's David Beckham. "The titles, the numbers, are there, so people probably know that, but the way I would like to be remembered is as a good person from a small village in Mallorca," the 38-year-old Nadal told the flag-waving, sign-toting crowd at the sold-out Palacio de Deportes Jose Maria Martin Carpena.
