The Barcelona Open has an unusual tradition for celebrating its champions. Like the ATP event in Houston, its trophy winners jump into a pool, literally dousing themselves in winning feelings.
The weather was mild this weekend in northeastern Spain, with temperatures in the 60s, though it wasn’t anywhere near as chilly as Munich, where snow showers disrupted action. Regardless, all three Barcelona champions—Rafael Nadal, Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan—fulfilled their duties with honor, with Nadal being joined by a gaggle of ball kids.
