In an interview with El País, Roger mentioned that he has a framed picture of himself and Rafa embracing during the 2022 Laver Cup.
I have the picture at home, framed, in a space where I keep some other images of my career. I don’t want photos everywhere, so I keep them in a specific area. When I pass by this one, it always catches my attention because it reflects our camaraderie, our friendship, and also our rivalry, all in a single image. It is a moment in which we are both able to reflect on everything we had just experienced, remembering our careers and how fortunate we have been to be tennis players, to have turned our hobby into a dream profession. That’s what this photo means to me. It was a significant moment to hold his hand for a second and, essentially, to show him my gratitude through that touch.

That photo is simply priceless, and it’s no wonder Roger wants to keep it close.
