Passing through a press conference only a few minutes following his cruel defeat once morest Denis Shapovalov, this Thursday evening in the round of 16while he seemed to be really suffering from his foot (he has suffered from Mueller-Weiss syndrome since 2004, editor’s note), Rafael Nadal spoke regarding this chronic injury and his potential participation in Roland-Garros.
“If I go to Roland Garros? I’m not hurt. I am a player who lives with a constant injury. It’s my daily life. It’s hard, the truth… and of course, sometimes I have a hard time accepting it. I had a lot of pain in my foot once more and that was it. It is still time “said the deposed title holder before saying that he was going to grit his teeth, as he is so often used to. “It’s sad, because I was playing better, I felt good in training…and coming back to that is hard, because there’s nothing you can do. You don’t know if you need to rest or if training is necessary. You just have to accept it and fight. »
