During the Laver Cup in Berlin, which Rafael Nadal decided to skip, Roger Federer spoke about his admiration for Rafa’s business ventures, particularly highlighting the impressive work he has done with his tennis academy in Mallorca.

While many know our champ for his on-court prowess, the Swiss maestro was pleasantly surprised by the scope of Nadal’s investments outside of tennis.

“I know he does a lot of investments. Actually, I was surprised by how much he was doing when I went to visit his Academy in Mallorca, which, by the way, is incredible. If you haven’t seen it yet, you should have a look at it; it’s a wonderful Academy, and I think it’s great what he’s doing. He was telling me about a lot of the investments he was doing off the side, which I think is exciting. It’s great to see that he’s not only into the forehands and backhands, but he also cares about investments. And maybe, who knows, down the road we can do something together as well,” Roger said.
