“Former Tennis Player’s Hilarious Story About Being Mistaken for Rafael Nadal”

There is no shortage of stories between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal and, even now away from the courts, the Swiss tennis player continues to talk about his friend and former rival… or to be confused with him. Even if the physical similarities are not many (so as not to write any…), the fact is that this did not prevent a ridiculous situation. The former World No. 1 was yesterday responding to his Twitter followers and, in addition to lamenting the fact that the Spaniard was left out of Roland Garros – “Open de France + Rafael Nadal = one of the most incredible records in the history of all sports,” he wrote – was prompted to tell a story about a time when he was mistaken for someone else. “It happened the other day in Formula 1. A guy asked me: ‘Can I take a picture with you, Mr Nadal?’ I told him it wasn’t Mr Nadal. He apologized and left without taking the photo”, wrote the Swiss, illustrating with a fun emoji.
