    Your Shortcut to... Rafael Nadal's legendary career

    Your Shortcut to... Rafael Nadal's legendary career

    In this Squiz Shortcut, we’ll take a look at the “King of Clay” Rafael Nadal who was back in action at the French Open earlier this week. “Rafa”, as he’s affectionately known, has an extraordinary record at Roland Garros, having won the men’s singles trophy 14 times - prompting some to say it should be named after him. But his dream of taking home a 15th title wasn’t to be and he bowed out in the first round. At nearly 38 years old, Nadal has been battling to stay at the top of the game after 2 years of injuries, and although nothing’s been confirmed, he’s hinted this tour could be his last. So in this Squiz Shortcut we’ll get you across Rafa’s rise to the top, why he’s loved around the world, and the legacy he’ll leave behind when he finally decides to hang up his racquet.
    Squiz recommends:
    Reading: Rafa’s biography for the hardcore fans who want to know more about him… it’s called Rafa: My Story*
    More reading: this GQ story sees Nadal and Federer posing together for a recent Louis Vuitton campaign at the top of a snowy mountain and saying nice things about each other. What’s not to love?

    A big thanks to Squizers because we hit more than 1,500 responses to our survey. We pledged $5,000 to the Red Cross if we hit 1,000, so Claire's sent that donation in - that makes us very happy... We'll keep that survey open and we reckon if we get another 1,000 responses it will well and truly be one of the biggest podcast audience surveys in the country - so keep 'em coming... Dive in on our website at thesquiz.com.au/...
