With the remains of the storm Filomena still not thawed in many parts of Spain, the snows have reached France, covering the French capital with a white cloak that has modified the usual appearance of some of the great sports monuments of the country. The official Roland-Garros Twitter account shared images of how the Philippe-Chatrier woke up, leaving an image that we are not used to of the clay court and Suzanne-Lenglen cathedral.
Although since last year the central court of the Parisian major already has a retractable roof, the lack of tennis activity at this time of year makes it uncovered, allowing an image so beautiful that many tennis fans could not resist the temptation to share in their social networks compulsively.
With Rafael Nadal already in Australia, more than one wondered if also with the snow under his feet he could exercise his tyrannical dominance in the Chatrier, where he does nothing but continue increasing his legend year after year. In spring, again with the usual brown color of clay shining, he hopes to lift his 14th Musketeers Cup to the sky of Paris, but first he has the challenge of an Australian Open in which Novak Djokovic and Dominic Thiem will face him again.
“The Spanish Rafael Nadal …”, the ovation of the Philippe Chatrier to Rafa
