The controversy continues with Rafa Nadal’s farewell in the Davis Cup. The winner of 22 Grand Slams put an end to his sporting career after Spain’s elimination from the tournament, and received a tribute on the court after the doubles match between Carlos Alcaraz and Marcel Granollers. A goodbye that many did not like: a petition on Change.org has exceeded 9,000 signatures in one day demanding a “worthy tribute” for the Balearic Islands.
This Wednesday, a citizen started a request on said portal with the aim of celebrating a “worthy and worthy recognition” of the former Spanish tennis player. Your request already accumulates a total of 9,084 signatures in just 24 hours.
“Rafa Nadal It has taught us to improve ourselves, to be humble, to be supportive, to always want to improve. He has taught us not to throw in the towel in the most complicated situations, to be fighters. It has shown us that we must treat all people with respect, to be humble, close and kind to others, and also to be supportive,” wrote the promoter of the petition on the page.
The user explains that Nadal’s farewell in the Davis Cup It was not the one “expected nor the one he deserves or the one the Spaniards want to give him and make him feel”. “Nadal has united us from the tennis courts and from outside them. He has made us feel indescribable emotions and enjoy ourselves enormously,” they recall in the text of the initiative. For this reason, he asks the institutions, the Government of Spain and the Royal Family for recognition “in keeping with the legacy and values” of the Manacorí.
