“The titles, numbers, they’re there. People probably know that,” Nadal said after the game.

“The way I’d like to be remembered more is like a good person from a small village in Mallorca.”

Nadal, who won 22 Grand Slams during his career, helped Spain win the Davis Cup in 2004, 2008, 2009, 2011 and 2019.
