En el año 2000, un jovencísimo Rafa Nadal fue el abanderado del equipo español en la final de la Copa Davis, la primera que ganó España. Cuatro años después, la ganaría como jugador - y lo haría cuatro veces más. Ayer, en esta misma competición, Rafa disputó su último partido como tenista profesional y, como siempre, lo hizo dándolo todo. Desde que comenzó a colaborar con Banesto en 2007, hemos seguido de cerca al que sin dudas es uno de los mejores atletas del mundo y el mejor deportista español de todos los tiempos, con 92 títulos como profesional. Y desde el primer día nos hemos identificado con los valores que le hacen único: su espíritu ganador y su capacidad de superación. Gracias, Rafa, te deseamos lo mejor en esta nueva etapa.
