Rafael Nadal‘s tennis career is shrouded in uncertainty as the Spanish player continues to battle with an injury that has kept him away from the game since his early exit from the Australian Open earlier this year. Speculations about his future have been rife, with some suggesting that he may soon retire.

However, his coach Carlos Moya recently gave an update on Nadal’s injury, stating that they are working hard to prepare him to defend his title at Roland Garros. “We do more or less an hour and a half a day and we continue to progress day by day,” Moya told. Toni Nadal, the former coach, and uncle of Nadal, expressed confidence that his nephew would be prepared for the tournament despite the concerns.

In fact, Toni even hinted that the 14-time French Open champion may even participate in the Italian Open in Rome, which has given fans hope that Nadal will soon return to the court. It remains to be seen whether Nadal will recover in time for the upcoming tournaments, but his fans will undoubtedly be hoping for a swift recovery and a triumphant return to the game.
