Rafael Nadal 2014 Wimbledon Nike Match Worn Shirt - (MEARS & RGU LOA)

Rafael Nadal 2014 Wimbledon Nike Match Worn Shirt - (MEARS & RGU LOA).

This is an iconic 2014 Rafael Nadal Wimbledon Nike match shirt in classic white, representing Nadal’s intense journey at the 2014 Wimbledon Championships. In the first round, Nadal faced Martin Kližan, dropping the initial set but fighting back to capture the last three and advance. This determined comeback was repeated in rounds two and three, where Nadal again lost the first set but powered through to claim victory in four. However, the fourth round brought a tough matchup against Australia’s rising star Nick Kyrgios. Nadal split the first two sets, but Kyrgios’ thunderous serves and powerful forehands pushed him to a stunning upset over Nadal, advancing to the quarterfinals as a wild card.

The offered match-worn shirt features Nadal’s signature style, with a black Nike “swoosh” over the left chest and his distinctive “Raging Bull” emblem on the right bicep. Complete with a Letter of Authenticity from both MEARS and Real Game Used (RGU), the shirt exhibits visible signs of wear, attesting to its authenticity as a relic from one of Nadal’s most memorable Wimbledon appearances.

Also comes with a Gotta Have Rock and Roll Certificate of Authenticity.
