Rafael Nadal is not only one of the greatest champions in tennis history, but he is also one of the nicest guys on the tour. He has always shown off his class with a beautiful act of sportsmanship throughout his career. The Spaniard is an epitome of humility and has a heart of gold, almost everyone knows that already.

Time after time Nadal proved why he is admired universally not just for his tennis skills, but also for a generous heart. While he is perceived to strike fear into his opponents with his aggressive style on the court, there is a hidden sensitive side of him off the court.

Rafael Nadal helped mother find her lost daughter in the crowd

In September 2016, Nadal played a doubles exhibition match in his hometown Mallorca, partnering with Simon Solbas against Carlos Moya and John McEnroe. It was when the Spaniard won million hearts by serving help to a distressed mother to find her lost daughter in the crowd.

Nadal stopped the match when he heard a commotion from the crowd. He stopped play before his serve, sparking a court wide search. The stoppage allowed everyone to focus on the missing child. Many fans also called out for the girl. She was soon spotted a few sections from her before she reunited with her mother.

The young girl was certainly frightened as she was crying after she met her mother. In tears herself, the mother swept in and picked up her daughter. Nadal was all smiles as the mother reunited with her daughter. The spectators also applauded the emotional reunion before the play resumed.
