As Rafael Nadal said so well when asked about his future exit from the world top 10 after 912 consecutive weeks in this elite, “With all the injuries I’ve had over the past 18 years, it’s almost a miracle. »
Our Italian colleague Luigi Gatto has therefore taken the time to add up all the Masters 1000 and Grand Slam tournaments missed by Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal since the start of their respective careers.
And the number of major events missed by the Spaniard is chilling, with no less than 48 missed tournaments!
We can also notice that unlike Rafa, the Swiss (25 missed major tournaments) and the Serbian (14) were rather spared.
