In 2023, Nadal visited the center to both teach and train.

The 38-year-old tennis legend also vacationed in Greece last year, visiting Corfu, Meganisi, and Ithaca.

One of the top three tennis players of all time, Nadal is currently relaxing and training in Greece before heading to Paris. There, he and Carlos Alcaraz are strong contenders for the Olympic doubles gold medal.
