Rafael Nadal drops major hint over French Open and retirement
Rafael Nadal has hinted that he may miss the French Open due to injury but suggests it will not force him into retirement from tennis just yet.
The 37-year-old, one of the greatest players of all time, has spoken openly about hanging up his racket several times and said 2024 would likely be his final season in the sport, later admitting he may not make it through the entire year.
Nadal has once again largely struggled with injury, picking up a muscle problem in Brisbane at the start of January in a huge blow to his farewell tour plans.
The Spanish legend, who has won 22 Grand Slam men’s singles titles, finally made his return in Barcelona this month, producing a win over Italian star Flavio Cobolli.
