‘Didn’t Know Roger Was Pregnant’ – Tennis Fans Have a Field Day as They Hilariously Mock Popular Publication Over Rafael Nadal’s Baby Announcement

Spanish tennis star Rafael Nadal, who had a phenomenal first half of the 2022 ATP season, couldn’t continue the same momentum into the second half as he was forced to retire before the semi-finals at Wimbledon and subsequently failed to participate at the US Open. Nadal, who was going through an abdominal injury, decided to fly to London to be there for Roger Federer’s last match at the Laver Cup. After spending an emotional evening amidst the cheers and tears from scores of fans at O2, Nadal returned home to be with his wife, who was expecting a baby.
