Talk about making a grand entrance: Rafael Nadal has just joined TikTok, and his first video is already doing numbers.
The 22-time Grand Slam champion hasn’t slowed down one bit during his retirement from professional tennis. In between inaugurating a new hotel in the Caribbean and playing rounds of golf, Nadal found time to give the video sharing site a spin.
Set to the tune of the Pink Panther theme song, Nadal’s first video features him walking onto a tennis court carrying his signature Babolat equipment bags. But rather than reach for a racquet, the Spaniard takes out a ring light—a staple TikTok content creator accessory—and sets up a selfie shot, lining up his markers just so. The video concludes with Nadal signing the camera lens—a classic tennis player move—and sending a message to users: “Hola TikTok!”
Shared on Friday under the handle @RafaelNadal, the video has already racked up more than 3.5 million views in less than 24 hours.
