- @genny_ss/SpanishRNFan uploaded a video from the IB3 where Rafa was declared the favorite sportsperson of the Balearic islands. She’s also provided us with an idea of some of the things said:
“One of the old men says: I wish the politicians were like Rafa.
Another says Rafa’s a great sportsman, great tennis player, but overall he’s ‘very human.’
One sport journo: He’s a sportsman that will mark an era in the Balearic sports. A sportsman that appears once every 100 years.
Toni Terrades (of IB3): He’s a champion and great tennis player but beyond his tactics, sacrifice, effort and physical power, his most outstanding characteristic is his humility.”
Rafa does social media:
- Rafa let us know he’s now practicing with Frederico Silva.
