Nadal will forever be my tennis crush. Editor’s Warning: Mentions of child endangerment and drug use.

Happening in the World: Tennis icon Rafael Nadal announced his retirement from professional tennis this past Thursday. At age 38, Nadal is retiring with 22 Grand Slam titles. His last tournament will be the Davis Cup, happening next month. Nadal’s retirement comes at a time when several injuries, among other factors, prevent him from being a frequent competitor at large tournaments (his past tournament being the Summer Olympics, in which he lost to Djokovic. Still, he ended up reaching the quarterfinals of men’s doubles). (NPR)
