Rafael Nadal shares emotional reply to Novak Djokovic's touching farewell tribute

The legendary Spaniard was beaten by Botic van de Zandschulp in the final match of his remarkable career at the Davis Cup Final 8 stage this week. Spain lost 2-1 to the Netherlands in the quarter-finals of the team competition in Malaga. Following Nadal's 6-4, 6-4 defeat to the Dutch No 2, Carlos Alcaraz overcame Tallon Greikspoor to take the tie to a deciding doubles contest. Alcaraz and Marcel Granollers then fell to the Dutch duo of van de Zandschulp and Wesley Koolhof, with the loss confirming Nadal's retirement. Djokovic joined forces with Roger Federer, Andy Murray, Serena Williams, as well as some football legends, for a video tribute that was played during Nadal's on-court farewell ceremony after Spain's loss. Prior to his Davis Cup goodbye, Nadal had not played a competitive singles match since losing to Djokovic in the second round of the Paris Olympics in July. That match was the 60th and last match in the legendary duo's epic rivalry. Djokovic sent another heartfelt message to Nadal in a video shared on the Davis Cup social media accounts. In a post on his Instagram story sharing Djokovic's tribute, Nadal thanked the Serbian for his warm words. "Thank you from the bottom of my heart," the 38-year-old wrote, adding a heart emoji. Here is Djokovic's message to Nadal in full: "Rafa. First all, congratulations on your amazing career. Your family, your team, yourself should be extremely proud of everything that you have achieved throughout your career that lasted for more than 20 years. In the tennis locker room, we will miss your warmups, your sprints, your jumps, your incredibly competitive parchis, the games that you had with your team before your matches. "We had a lot of fun times, sharing the locker room and, you know, I just hope that today, even though it is a sad day for tennis — even though it is a sad day for Spain and sport in general, that you are retiring — at the same time, I hope that everyone will celebrate your career because there is so much to embrace, so much to celebrate. "I think, more importantly — and you would agree with this — is the the mark that you left behind in terms of the connection with the people, in terms of how you inspired millions of children around the world to grab a tennis racket. How you conveyed your passion and love for the game, how you carried yourself on the court. How you showed respect to your opponents, to the entire tennis ecosystem throughout the course of your entire career. "Your tenacity, your fighting spirit, the energy that you brought every single time, the strength, the power, is something that will be studied and is something that will be transferred to many, many generations that are coming up and aspiring to be like you as a person and as a great tennis champion. I've been very honoured and thrilled to be called your rival over the last, almost 20 years, we've played more than 60 matches. I have learned so much in our encounters and thank you very much for also making me the player that I am and that I was over the last 20 years "The tennis world and the sports world will miss the incredible energy that you brought on the court. My friend, I wish you the very best of luck with your charity foundation, with your family, with your Rafa Nadal Tennis Academy that continues to thrive, that continues to spread around the world where you will be able to spread the experiences and the knowledge and the passion and love you have for the game to the younger generation. Thank you very much and good luck my friend."

Why Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer missed Rafael Nadal's farewell match

Nadal's great rivals Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray had confirmed to Davis Cup Tournament Director Feliciano Lopez that they wanted to attend the Spanish icon's farewell party. "Novak Djokovic has said he wants to be there and also Andy Murray. There are many more who want to be there and I don't know if we are going to have seats for everyone,” Lopez said. Roger Federer kept tight-lipped about a possible appearance, but most expected he would turn up and return the favour after Nadal played in his last-ever doubles match at the 2022 Laver Cup in London. But in the end the remaining members of the Big Four as well as his former coach Toni Nadal and other high-profile figures from the sport were absent at Tuesday's celebrations in Malaga with only the Spanish tennis community and Nadal's closest family and friends at the Martin Carpena Arena. His Spain Davis Cup team-mates – led by Carlos Alcaraz and captain David Ferrer – were always going to be part of the celebrations and farewell while his coach Carlos Moya was also on the bench for his final match. Nadal's wife Maria Francisca and son Rafa Nadal Junior were accompanied by his parents, Ana Maria and Sebastia, and his sister Maribel. Other long-term members of his team – including coaches Marc Lopez and Gustavo Marcaccio, his former coach Francis Roig, his physio Rafa Maymo, his nutritionist Nuria Granados, his agent Carlos Costa and his press officer Benito Perez-Barbadillo – were seen in Malaga. But most tennis A-listers did not make it to the match and the reason has been revealed. According to Spanish paper El Espanol, the farewell celebrations were only due to take place on Friday as Spain were expected to reach the semi-final of the Davis Cup. Spain lost the quarter-final 2-1 against the Netherlands on Tuesday and that spoiled the party. The likes of Djokovic, Murray and Federer were only set to arrive in Malaga on Friday morning with the official ceremony planned for later in the day, but Spain's early exit spoiled the surprise for Nadal. The trio, though, did take part in a farewell video that was shared on the big screen inside the arena. Toni Nadal, meanwhile, was unable to attend Tuesday's match due to work commitments in Rome, but hinted he would make it to the venue later in the week had Spain reached the latter stages of the Davis Cup. Spain's early exit from the tournament meant the planned Friday farewell had to be cancelled with Nadal given a sendoff after the doubles defeat to the Netherlands.
