Will Rafael Nadal be at Roland Garros? “Today my decision is not yet clear. But if I had to say something, I would say that I’m closer to going out and giving it my all than the other way around. » Despite his defeat today, this Saturday, in the 2nd round of the Masters 1000 in Rome against the Pole Hubert Hurkacz (6-1, 6-3), the 37-year-old Spaniard was very positive at the press conference about his participation in Paris Grand Slam tournament (May 26 – June 9).
“Physically, I have problems, but not so much that I won’t go to the most important tournament of my career at the moment,” explains the record holder for victories at Roland Garros (14 times). If I feel good, I’ll fight there like I did for 20 years. There are two ways of thinking: telling yourself I’m not ready, and that’s understandable and understandable; and tell me there are two weeks left and that we can change something. Even though this is a difficult time, I feel closer to wanting to try. »
Having dropped to 305th place in the world, Rafael Nadal remains with three tournaments played on clay: a 2nd round loss in Barcelona (ATP 500), one in the 1/8 finals in Madrid (Masters 1000) and therefore defeat day in Rome, 2nd round. The Mallorcan “doesn’t know” what his plan will be between now and Roland Garros. He concluded his press conference by adding that he “hopes to arrive in better conditions” to be able to fight on Parisian soil.
