Real Madrid and Rafael Nadal were once again as the kings of their respective sports in 2022. Both arrived in difficult circumstances, but they recovered and managed to win for the fourteenth time. Madridistas were able to celebrate the Fourteenth twice in Paris, which hosted the Champions League final and, of course, the Roland Garros.

Rafa Nadal won the Paris Grand Slam for the fourteenth time after defeating Casper Ruud in the final. This number is a history itself, as it represents the 22nd Grand Slam of 36 years old super Rafa, who is entering the final stretch of his sporting career as the undisputed king of the clay court, particularly the clay court in Paris.

Nadal was one of the most notable spectators in Saint-Denis a week ago, when Real Madrid defeated Liverpool and began to draw a circle that Rafa had to close this Sunday. Both won their respective Fourteenths in the French capital, a week apart, fulfilling a prophecy in which neither started as favorites but ended up demonstrating why they are the best in their respective fields in history.

Now it's time to rest a bit, then to plan and to fight next season for the 15th.
