Rafael Nadal is set to compete in singles after speculation that he will focus on doubles
After much speculation, it's now official: Rafael Nadal will compete in men's singles tennis at the Paris Olympics on the clay courts of Roland Garros, his second home.
The 14-time French Open champion has had to deal with a series of injuries over the past two years, leading to speculation about how much tennis she is capable of.
His right thigh was taped during his first-round doubles win with Carlos Algarz on Saturday night, and after the win, he said he “didn't understand” why he was playing at 2:00 p.m. (local time) and considering he finished his doubles match at 10:00 p.m. “Fun”.
“I don't know. I have to go back to the village. I have to see what's going on. I have to talk to the team and make the right decision to get results for Spain,” said the 22-time Grand Slam champion. “Karuzal Deportivo,” he said.
In the end, however, Nadal picked up gold in the singles and will face Hungarian Morton Fusovics in the first round.
However, the Spaniard had to wait a while to get on track.
