Training canceled
“Setback”: Nadal fears for start in Paris
Will another tennis superstar be missing from the Olympic Games alongside Jannik Sinner? Rafael Nadal's start in Paris is apparently in the balance.
The 38-year-old Spaniard had to cancel a training session with Alexander Zverev on Thursday. There was immediate speculation as to whether Nadal, who has been permanently injured recently, would be able to compete at all at the Olympics.
"A minor setback"
There has been "a small setback", said coach Carlos Moya, without going into detail. "I can't guarantee anything, we'll have to wait and see," said the former tennis pro. Nadal's first appearance would be on Saturday in the doubles alongside Carlos Alcaraz. On Sunday, Hungarian Marton Fucsovis awaits in the singles.
According to Spanish media reports, Nadal's left thigh is causing him problems. All tennis fans are looking forward to Saturday to see whether the Spanish tennis legend will actually be fit in time.
