Mallorca is celebrating their most famous sportsmen 10th Roland Garros cup. Rafa Nadal won yesterday what he described as "the perfect Roland Garros" as he did not drop a single set during the championship.

Born in Manacor, Nadal made history this Sunday when he became the first man to win a grand slam event 10 times. He beat Stan Wawrinka in three sets: 6-2, 6-3 and 6-1.

Nadal is very attached to his hometown of Manacor; here he has not only opened an academy for budding tennis players but also a sports centre, residencespa and museum.

Congratulations, Rafa!
