IT’S EVERY PARENT’S worst nightmare, but thankfully Rafa Nadal showed his softer side to help a distraught mother find her missing toddler during an exhibition tennis match.
The Spaniard was playing a doubles game with Simon Solbas, Carlos Moya and John McEnroe on his home island of Majorca when it became clear the child had gone missing after losing contact with her mother.
Nadal paused proceedings to draw attention to the situation with the stadium’s screen showing the visibly-distressed mother calling for her daughter.
An emotional moment followed at the newly-opened Rafa Nadal Sports Centre as the pair were eventually reunited.
