Rafael Nadal's remarkable tennis career came to end on Tuesday and he heads into retirement after Spain lost to the Netherlands in the quarterfinals at the Davis Cup Final 8.
The 38-year-old Nadal played on tour for more than two decades and collected 22 Grand Slam titles, including 14 on his favorite clay at the French Open, and 92 singles titles overall. He reached No. 1 in the ATP rankings and spent the longest consecutive span in the top 10 in history — nearly 18 full years — until playing sparingly the past two seasons because of several injuries.
