Spanish tennis legend Rafael Nadal has been suffering from various injuries, and he even missed the entire last year due to his recovery and surgeries. With the 22-time Grand Slam title winner already missing the Australian Open, Nadal has claimed to make Roland Garros his sole priority this year. 

With the clay court season starting, all the eyes will be on the ‘Clay of King‘ as he looks to feature in the all-important French Open one last time before bidding the sport goodbye.

I spoke to his team and they confirmed that he wants to play in Monte Carlo after taking part in Indian Wells. We keep our fingers crossed for his health but we hope and trust that he will be able to come. He has already won the tournament 11 times and could be looking for a twelfth triumph.

Is 2024 likely to be Rafael Nadal’s last year?

A player of the stature of Rafael Nadal deserves all the applause every single time he gets on the court now, considering the kind of career he has had in the last two decades.

Now that the injuries have slowed the performance of the star-studded player, Nadal looks to bid the sport goodbye this year by finishing the year on a high.

Nadal has confirmed that he will talk about his retirement plans by the start of the French Open, and he will return to the court again in an exhibition matchup against Carlos Alcaraz set to take place in Las Vegas. 

He is then bound to play at the Indian Wells Masters, which will start on March 6 to March 13, 2024, which will give the Spaniard the much-needed game time ahead of the most-awaited Roland Garros.
