The Citizen|October 12, 2024
Having won a whopping 92 titles, including 22 Grand Slam trophies and accumulating $135 million (about R2.35 billion) in prize money over a career that spanned 23 years as a professional, Spanish tennis legend Rafael Nadal, 38, will hang up his racquet at the end of the season.

The "king of clay" has been plagued by several injuries over the past few years, forcing his retirement after an illustrious career that saw him win the Australian Open and Wimbledon twice each, the US Open on four occasions and the French Open a staggering 14 times.
