Rafael Nadal He has been out since he injured his left hip, in the iliopsoas. He returned to work this week, with caution because “unfortunately, I had a massive breakdown in Australia, and it’s taking time. I’m doing all the work I can every day to try to recover as best I can that’s a possible way. And then we’ll see; day by day. I’ve done a massive tear in the muscle, I’ve torn the psoas tendon a little bit,” he said in several televised statements.
Nadal was invited to the box at the Bernabéu to follow the semifinal of the Copa del Rey between Real Madrid and Barça.
“In tennis we draw strength from that, which is a slower evolution than we would like,” he said.
He doesn’t like to set deadlines, he prefers to be calm. “I’m not 20 years old anymore and the calendar is passing. When you have a year like me, you get tired. I train 15 or 20 minutes a day at the Academy, so I don’t break my arm. I don’t know if I’ll come back in Monte Carlo, in Barcelona or in Madrid. But when I’m there, I want to play and I’ll be there as soon as I can”.
He is expected on clay, but he does not promise. “I come every day. I don’t know when I’ll be back, when I’m okay. And then we have to have a little patience.”
