Tennis legends and rivals Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal reunited in Mallorca this week.
Twenty-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer traveled to the Nadal Academy to spend time with the King of Clay.
Photos and video of the iconic champions spread all over the internet sparking speculation perhaps Roger and Rafa will reunite for some exhibitions in the near future.
“Roger Federer! Really enjoyed our morning together at the @rnadalacademy!” Rafa Nadal posted on social media.
It’s the second time in the last six weeks the legendary champions have spent time together. Swiss Maestro Federer joined fellow Big 4 champions Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray honoring the King of Clay in his powerful and poignant farewell to Roland Garros celebration in Paris on opening weekend of Roland Garros.
Earlier this year, Federer shared he has resumed tennis training and hopes to play exhibition matches.
Fingers crossed for a Roger-Rafa reunion on court for some future exhibition matches. In recent years, Federer has played exos with Juan Martin del Potro and Alexander Zverev.
