Thanks Rafa

Thank you, Rafa. We are at a loss for words to express what you have meant to sport and to all of us. You are not only the best athlete in history, but also an example of effort, humility and overcoming.

Your achievements are countless, but beyond the trophies, we are left with the mark you leave in every corner of the world. You taught us that nothing is impossible, that with passion and determination you can go beyond your dreams.

Today we do not say goodbye to you, because your legacy will be eternal. Thank you, Rafa, for so many emotions and for representing the spirit of sport at its best.
