After playing only 14 matches and securing just eight wins in the last year and a half, legendary tennis player Rafael Nadal will also miss Wimbledon.
Injuries have marred a great career that would undoubtedly have been even greater, but from this perspective, it seems that ending his career is the only logical step for Rafa Nadal.
His Davis Cup team captain, David Ferrer, revealed that Rafael Nadal is not going to Wimbledon. However, Ferrer emphasizes that the popular Rafa is working hard and hopes that he can still contribute to world tennis, although that is hard to expect.
“I can’t confirm what will happen, but it’s difficult for me to switch to grass. I need to discuss it with my team, but I don’t think it would be wise to make a big change in surface and then go to the Olympic Games,” Nadal said after losing to Alexander Zverev at the start of Roland Garros.
It is not known where Nadal will play his next tournament, but it is clear that it will be on clay. This could be the ATP 500 in Hamburg, which takes place from July 15 to 21. The official Spanish team expedition to the Olympic Games departs on Monday, July 22. After the Olympic Games in Paris, Nadal will decide whether to end his career or to continue, which could be seen as a struggle, into 2025.
At the same time, Novak Djokovic is also likely to miss Wimbledon, as he has undergone meniscus surgery. This leaves Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz among the top contenders for the title of “unofficial world tennis champion.”
