rafael nadal made it clear that it would not. Mutua Madrid Open It starts on April 24. The Balearic tennis player, who missed the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell due to physical problems, will not be able to play again. Masters 1000 tournament.
After being absent from Barcelona, the Masters 1000 in Madrid and Rome were considered Rafa Nadal’s goal before the second Grand Slam of the year arrived.
This is the official explanation:
As you know, I had a major injury in the Psoas in Australia. There was originally supposed to be a six to eight week recovery period and we are now fourteen. The truth is that the situation is not what we expected. All medical indications have been followed, but somehow the improvement has not been as they have told us and we find ourselves in a difficult situation. Weeks go by and I have the illusion that I can play in the most important tournaments of my career like Monte Carlo, Barcelona, Madrid, Roma, Roland Garros and for now I miss Monte Carlo and Barcelona. . Unfortunately I won’t be able to be in Madrid.
My injury is still not healed and I can’t figure out what I need to compete. I was training but now a few days ago we decided to change course a bit, try another treatment and see if things improve so we can move on to the next step. I can’t give a deadline because I would have told you if I knew, but I don’t know. This is how things are now.
I also want to send a special congratulations to all Madrid and Spanish people because I will have missed two tournaments played here at my home. You all know what it means to me to play in these tournaments and in that case I won’t be able to play with everything he gave me in Madrid.
During this time I have no choice but to try to have the right attitude, to give myself the opportunity to compete in one of the remaining tournaments from the soil season and to work and be with the right mindset.
A very strong hug to everyone and I’ll let you know as soon as I get news. Thank you!
