Rafael Nadal is set to return to action with the Brisbane International. Despite injury setbacks and age not being on his side, Nadal is pushing himself to the limits as he returns to the tour to compete with the likes of Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz. While his opponents admire the Spaniard for his commitment, a section of fans is busy trolling the 37-year-old over his bald spots.
While Nadal pays little heed to such trolls, Nick Kyrgios took the matter into his own hands to give it back to them. The Australian ace mocked these trolls who took aim at the Spanish ace for his bald spots.
Kyrgios commented under a post that mocked such tennis fans for trolling Rafael Nadal. As the post showed those people already with worse physical health, Kyrgios agreed.
Haha this is what they look like for realNick Kyrgios posted.
The anticipation grows for Rafael Nadal’s comeback
While Rafael Nadal can do little to please his haters, the Spaniard can surely put on a show for his fans who have been anticipating his comeback for a long time. Not only his fans, but Nadal’s opponents are equally excited about having the Spaniard back on the tour.
Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic shared their excitement during their exhibition match in Riyadh. While Alcaraz backs Nadal to perform at his level best, Djokovic believes Nadal will be one of the contenders at all the Grand Slam tournaments.
I always expect him to give the best of himself. Some have often stated that he has been close to the end, as they have done for me. But we proved them wrong. He is not the type to come back to the circuit just to play, let's say, at an average level, to play a few games. He wants to win titles, he wants to be the best, that's why he is what he is: a legend of our sport.Novak Djokovic said about Rafael Nadal.
Notably, Rafael Nadal is returning to action with the Brisbane International. The Spaniard has already landed in Australia and has even hit the practice courts straightaway. The 37-year-old will play at the ATP 250 event before he begins his quest for the 23rd Grand Slam title. Apart from Grand Slams, the Olympics will also be in Nadal’s sight who is already a two-time gold medalist.
