Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar
Rafael Nadal welcomed a special guest to his academy this week. Felix Auger-Aliassime is preparing for his upcoming events on the hard courts of the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar in Mallorca under the supervision of Frederic Fontang and Toni Nadal.
Before setting off for Rotterdam, where he will form part of the field for the first ATP 500 of the season at the ABN AMRO Open, the Canadian was keen to get a look at the museum where the 22-time Grand Slam champion keeps his trophies.
During his visit to the Rafa Nadal Museum, they had time to enjoy the interactive experiences and take in all the trophies and objects donated by great athletes on the lower floor. In addition, they commemorated their visit with two photos in front of the Grand Slam and ATP Masters 1000 trophy cabinets.
As on his previous visits, Auger-Aliassime stayed in the residence for adults at the academy and had the chance to train for the first time both on the indoor courts and in the new players’ gym. In addition, he sampled the Roland Garros restaurant, where he ate every day.
Auger-Aliassime enjoyed the best season of his career 2022, picking up his first four ATP Tour titles in Rotterdam, Florence, Antwerp and Basel, helping him reach his career-high Pepperstone ATP Ranking of No. 6. The icing on the cake was his Davis Cup victory with Canada in the finals played in Malaga.
His mind will now be on his next event, where he will be the defending champion in Rotterdam next week.
