Rafael Nadal BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Rafael Nadal has surfaced frequently in headlines these past few days, playing a distinctive role both inside and outside tennis while sparking talk across social media and major newsrooms. In Madrid, he issued a widely shared warning about AI-generated fake videos that use his likeness and voice to promote financial advice, posting pointed messages on his LinkedIn and other platforms. Nadal clarified that he has no involvement with these scams and called for critical thinking in the age of artificial intelligence, stressing the dangers of manipulated media and the ethical use of new technologies, with media outlets like Arab News relaying his concerns in detail.

Nadal’s enduring legacy is also being celebrated even as he steps back from tournament play. A viral debate broke out among tennis fans online after a photo reignited speculation about his hair, with some urging him—often humorously—to consider a trip to Turkey, the so-called world capital for hair transplants. He has not responded publicly to that chatter, but it is another instance of Nadal effortlessly fueling social media conversation.

Professional camaraderie remains a core part of his public persona. When young Danish star Holger Rune suffered a devastating Achilles injury during the Stockholm Open, forcing season-ending surgery and a long rehab, Nadal was among the first tennis legends to organize a public outpouring of support. "Get well soon!" was his succinct Instagram comment, joining Ben Shelton and Boris Becker in wishing Rune a swift recovery—a gesture that generated positive coverage from international tennis outlets including Sportskeeda and Pro Football Network.

Off court, Nadal’s influence shapes the next wave of tennis greats through his Rafa Nadal Academy. Just this past week, the Academy marked its ninth anniversary, highlighted by the milestone of Norway’s Casper Ruud, who clinched the Nordic Open title in Stockholm after an impressive performance, a testament both to the quality of the Academy’s training and Nadal’s wider sporting impact. In parallel, the Academy’s coaches met with Korea’s most promising junior players in a high-profile session in Seoul, part of a partnership with Kia Motors to develop international tennis talent, as detailed by MK News.

Through every channel—from calling out technology fraud on professional networks, to inspiring rising champions across continents, to igniting playful social media debate—Nadal remains a central and respected figure, with every appearance or statement making ripples far beyond the baseline.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
