Congratulations to Rafa Nadal continue to happen and not only from the world of sports. The feat of the Spanish tennis player, the first to win 21 Grand Slams after his epic victory in the final of the Australian Open against Medvedev, has crossed the barriers of the sport and praise is raining down on him from all spheres. On television, one of the last to congratulate him was chef Karlos Arguiñano.
The Basque has taken advantage of the window that his Antena 3 program Open Kitchen represents to speak clearly about Nadal. Arguiñano did not skimp on praise to refer to the Balearic athlete while making one of his recipes in front of the cameras: «First to congratulate him. How big. This one also flies a lot, I hope he has a calm and happy return flight»
“We have admiration for Nadal”
“We worship our Rafa Nadal. How important we all feel when we see him. Typical guy who never gives up… you should never give up. He was losing and it seemed that the Russian was going to eat him, and well no, ”added Karlos Arguiñano about the great triumph of the Manacor in the final against the Russian tennis player, who was winning 2-0 in sets in Melbourne but ended up defeated by a imperial Nadal who is crowned the best in history.
“If this one lasts for a couple of hours… it lasts for five, and in the end it hits you in the neck,” Karlos Arguiñano joked, ending with emotion “What a great Rafa!” The chef shows that he is a gentleman and extols the figure of the best sportsman in our country, a legend inside and outside of Spain despite the fact that some members of Podemos or Basque and Catalan independence supporters weigh him down. This weekend some have avoided the subject to not congratulate him and others have directly made a fool of themselves trying to detract from what Rafa Nadal is doing for sport and for tennis.
