After cheering their team on to a draw, Japan fans clean up the stands at Dallas Stadium.

[NOBUNAGA🇯🇵🏯_夏樹蒼依 @japan_nobunaga]

Blue bags up.

Japan 2, Netherlands 2 — an absolute thriller in Arlington. And then the real show started.

The Japanese end pulls out thousands of bright blue bags. First they wave them like flags, bouncing and chanting until the whole section is one giant wall of blue. Then — same bags, new mission. They fan out across the stands and scoop up every bottle, wrapper and cup till the seats look brand new.

And who's right in the middle of it, grinning with a bag in his hand? Jameis Winston. Giants QB. Heisman winner. Out there cleaning up with the Samurai Blue like it's the best gig of his summer.

No chore. No lecture. Just a party that cleans up after itself.

Best fans on the planet. 🇯🇵💙

Es un inmenso honor haber sido el primer deportista investido como Doctor Honoris Causa por esta universidad que ha dejado una huella tan profunda en la cultura, la en la sociedad y en el pensamiento de España.

Gracias a la @usal y a toda Salamanca por el cariño recibido. Este día me acompañará siempre y me anima a seguir siendo fiel a los valores que el deporte me ha enseñado.

¡Muchísimas gracias!

Never in the history of sport has an athlete carried the weight of expectation like Rafael Nadal did at Roland-Garros, year after year, for nearly two decades.

And yet, he lived up to it, time and time again.

The greatest mentality sport has ever witnessed.

[Madel Suravilla @madel_suravilla]

In 2004, ⁦⁦@RafaelNadal in crutches due to foot injury was on the top of Philippe Chatrier & saw it for the 1st time. He told Tuts his Nike agent:

"I'm going to cause some trouble here."

In 2005 he played & won.

The rest is history.

Rafa Nadal said beautiful words to Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Murray during his Roland Garros tribute:

“After all these years fighting for everything it’s unbelievable how the time changes perspective of everything. You don’t know yet Novak. Probably you know already Andy. With Roger we have talked about it a couple times. All of the nerves, pressure, strange feelings you feel when we see each other when we are rivals.. it’s completely different when you finish your career. At the end, now, it’s all about being happy about everything that we achieved. At the end, all of us achieved our dreams. We became tennis players. Played in the most important stages of our careers. I think we built amazing rivalries but at the same time in a good way. We showed the world that we can fight as hard as possible, but being good colleagues and respect each other very well. And for me, it means a lot that you are all here.. You gave me some hard times on court honestly 😂 but I really enjoyed pushing myself to the limit every single day to compete with all of you. At the end tennis is just a game. Sometimes we feel a bit more. But we understand at the end of the day, it’s really only a game. What it means for me that all of you are here is everything. It’s a great message to the world that we can be good friends even if we had the best rivalries. Thank you very very much for everything during all these years. I really hope and I’m sure we will continue doing positive things for our sport. Our legacy is there, but we need to keep building things that helps tennis keep growing. I’m sure we will make beautiful things together. Thank you very much for everything. And all the best.” 🥹

On this day, 20 years ago, Rafael Nadal stepped on court Philippe-Chatrier for the very first time. Won his very first point. Won his very first match.

The rest is history 📖

Carlos, aunque sé que hoy es un día difícil valora una medalla que es muy importante para todo el país y verás, con el tiempo, que para ti también.
Gracias por esta semana increíble y por una medalla que nos regalas al deporte español.
Un abrazo 🙌🏻🥈
