The words of Rafael Nadal

Bad news for Rafa Nadal. The Spaniard, still struggling with the ileopsoas muscle injury in his left leg sustained at the Australian Open, will not participate in the performance at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas that would have seen him face Carlos Alcaraz next March 5.

A sign that his condition is still not optimal and it will take a long time to see him back on the court.

“I am very sorry that I will not be able to participate in this extraordinary event with Carlos. But the timing of my recovery from the injury does not allow me to be there. I’m sure we will find another date to enjoy it. I want to thank all the fans and organizers for staying in constant contact with me and being so understanding.”
