“The reality is that the situation is not what we would have expected,” says Rafael Nadal as fears grow that the injured tennis star may not see action in the French Open.
MADRID, Spain – Rafa Nadal will miss next week’s Madrid Open after a setback in his recovery from a hip injury sustained at the Australian Open in January, the 22-time major champion said on Thursday, April 20.
“Initially it had to be a six- to eight-week recovery period and we are now on 14,” Nadal said in a video published on his social media accounts. “The weeks are passing and I had the desire of being able to play in tournaments that are the most important in my career such as Monte Carlo, Barcelona, Madrid, Rome, Roland Garros and for the moment I have missed Monte Carlo and Barcelona. I will not be able to be in Madrid unfortunately.”
