After Carlos Alcaraz, Rafa Nadal leaves everyone impacted by rejecting Tesla advertising in Roland-Garros
In an unexpected turn during the awards ceremony in Roland-Garros, the Spanish legend Rafa Nadal caused shock by firmly and determined to bring advertising sponsored by Tesla, the famous company of Elon Musk, in its official clothing for the event.
Despite the large sum of money offered by sponsorship, Nadal explained his decision with a forceful and respectful reason: “I just want an elegant and simple outfit on this important day for me. I do not want people to think that I am someone who puts money before, accepting to announce a great company in my most special day.”
The tennis player added that for him, the time to receive a prize in Roland-Garros must be a sacred moment, reserved only for his fans, friends and family who come to share his joy. “I don’t need money for this moment; what I value most is the presence and support of those who accompany me,” Nadal said.
This Nadal position has generated admiration and respect in the sports community and among its followers, who value their integrity and commitment to the values that have defined it as one of the greatest world tennis.
While Carlos Alcaraz also made news recently for his own decisions outside the court, Nadal demonstrates once again that his legacy goes beyond trophies and that his personal principles are unwavering, even in the face of economic temptations.
The rejection of Tesla’s advertising in an event as prestigious as Roland-Garros reaffirms the image of Rafa Nadal as an authentic athlete, focused on what really matters: sport, family and his followers.
