Rafael Nadal finished a new training session on Magic Box before its presentation in Mutua Madrid opens which will start against the American boy Darwin Blanchin the first round of the competition.
The Spaniard, the player with the most wins in the tournament in Madrid with five wins, trained on one of the outdoor courts of the Caja Mágica, amid great anticipation; in a session he shared with the British Cameron Norrie and watched by many fans around the field.
Nadal arrived in Madrid on Friday from Barcelona where he played two matches at the Conde de Godó tournament. After being dismissed by Australian Alex de Minaur, he moved to Madrid and has since trained at Caja Mágica to continue his season.
The winner of twenty-two Grand Slams, who confirmed this Monday his participation in the team of Laver Cup captained by Bjorn Borg, raised his intensity in the preparatory session. The idea is to advance the rounds in each tournament to regain the level of competitive play at Roland Garros and the Paris Olympic Games.
Nadal, who attended the Santiago Bernabéu stadium on Sunday to watch Real Madrid’s match against Barcelona, returns to the Madrid Masters 1000 two years after his last participation, in 2022, when he was ousted by Carlos Alcaraz , the champion of the two latest editions. .
Rafael Nadal will make his debut next Thursday against the American Darwin Blanch, with whom he was paired in the first round of the Madrid tournament. If he succeeds in this commitment he will meet again against Alex de Miñaur, in the second round, as happened with Conde De Godó last week.
