Rafael Nadal is not only one of the greatest champions in tennis history, but he is also a lovely soul.
The Spanish sensation noticed that a small kid was squashed by his adoring crowd in search of his autograph. Rafa rescued the small boy and he was fantastic in soothing him showing his paternal instinct.
Eventually, everything went well, and the boy also got Rafa’s coveted autograph.
Nadal thanked by the father of the kid
Eventually, the Spanish sensation was thanked by the father of the small boy that tweeted: “that was my son you saved. He already idolizes you. Now you’re his hero too! Thank you! Best of luck at the US Open!
