Discover the wax version of Rafa Nadal. One of the wax figures most admired by visitors to the Wax Museum of Madrid. Nadal is known for his mental strength and fighting spirit, and for being a living legend of world tennis.

Born in Manacor (Mallorca, Spain) in 1986, Rafael Nadal began to excel in tennis at a very young age. At the age of 19 he won his first Roland Garros tournament, embarking on a spectacular career that would lead him to win a total of 22 Grand Slam titles, 14 of which were at Roland Garros, a historic record that no one has managed to surpass. Known as the "King of Clay", Nadal marked a turning point in the history of tennis. He has held the world number one ranking numerous times, is an Olympic medalist, and was a key player in Spain's Davis Cup victories. Beyond his sporting achievements, his humility, discipline, and commitment have made him an example of self-improvement for millions of people. Interesting fact: he is left-handed on the court, but right-handed in everyday life.
