Rafael Nadal raising the Olympic flame as a torch bearer at the 2024 Paris Olympics was one of the most iconic moments to come from the Games last summer. But as it turns out, Nadal didn't even know he was participating in this tradition until about 10 minutes before he grabbed the torch.
Nadal admitted to Andy Roddick on his podcast Served this week that he knew he would be involved in the Opening Ceremony, but he didn't know what his role was until just minutes before he took the stage in front of the Eiffel Tower.
