Nadal got off Madrid and explained his difficult situation: “The injury still does not heal”

Rafael Nadal will not play in Madrid either. While the Barcelona Open is being played, the Spanish tennis player announced that he will not be able to participate in the Masters 1000 in Madrid because he is still unable to recover from the injury that has been missing him for several weeks. When will your return to the circuit be? It’s anyone’s guess. The former world No. 1 injured his left leg at the Australian Open and has not competed on the tour for 14 weeks. “The reality is that the situation is not what we would have expected. All medical indications have been followed, but the evolution has not been what we were initially told,” he said. Through a video posted on his social networks, the Manacorí explained what his current situation is around his injury: “We are in a difficult situation. Weeks go by and I had the illusion 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 at the moment I have missed Monte Carlo and Barcelona. Unfortunately, I will not be able to be in Madrid. The injury still hasn’t healed and I can’t work what I need to do to compete.” I have nothing left but to try to be with the right attitude during all this time, try to give me the opportunity to compete in one of the tournaments that remain of the clay season and I have no choice but to work and be with the right mentality, “said Rafa, who will change treatment to try to start recovering. Discarded his presence in Madrid, the next stops of the tour of brick dust are the Masters 1000 of Rome, which will begin on May 10, and Roland Garros, which will raise its curtain on the 28th of the same month.
