Absent from the courts for several months, Rafael Nadal has always explained that his return was not guaranteed. For Spanish radio COPE’s Great Gamethe Majorcan gave more reassuring news.
While the boss of the Australian Open had confirmed the future participation of the Spaniard, he reacted by implying that nothing was guaranteed. His latest statement tends to be more optimistic. “Until now, I didn’t know if I would play tennis again, and now I truly believe that I will play tennis again. Every time I manage to practice a little more, the progress seems good “, did he declare. The winner of 22 Grand Slams does not seem to hope too big things from his future return. “I don’t know what level I can come back to, but I never lost that illusion. I haven’t played in a year and for me, my personal achievement is maintaining the enthusiasm to play again. I feel that it will be difficult to return to a high level of tennis, but if I had not had the hope of being competitive again, I would not have done the work that I have done these months and the efforts that this implies after a very long career. I am not going to win more Grand Slam tournaments than Djokovicbut I will give myself the opportunity to please myself again.”
The countdown begins for the man who explained that 2024 would probably be his last year on the circuit.
