Djokovic bids farewell to Nadal: "Only you know what you have had to endure"

Novak Djokovic used his social media to dedicate a few words to Rafa Nadal on his farewell day when he announced that he will officially say goodbye to tennis next month.

"Rafa, one post is not enough to express the respect I have for you and what you have done for our sport. You have inspired millions of children to play tennis, and I believe that is the greatest achievement anyone could wish for. Your tenacity, dedication, fighting spirit will be taught for decades. Your legacy will live on forever. Only you know what you have had to endure to become an icon of tennis and sports in general.

Thank you for pushing me to the limit so many times in our rivalry, the one that has impacted me the most as a player. Your passion for representing Spain has always been remarkable. I wish you the best possible farewell in Malaga with the Davis Cup team. I will be there in person to pay respect to your stellar career".
