The 36-year-old Spaniard has been injured for most of the year, winning just one of the four matches he has played. He missed the Indian Wells and Miami Open, as well as the Monte-Carlo Masters. After his withdrawal from the Monegasque event, it appeared he would be fit for the 2023 Barcelona Open.
However, Spanish publication Cadena SER reports that Nadal may not be ready for Barcelona and may even miss the 2023 Madrid Open. The Spaniard’s clear objective in 2023 is to be ready for Roland Garros, where he can fight for the His 23rd Grand Slam title, and according to French coach Patrick Mouratoglou, he will be ready for this tournament. But the latest information is worrying.
“His team confirmed to Cadena SER the difficulties he is going through due to the injury, as he is not 100% recovered. This raises doubts about the dates of his return to the field, as there are days when he feels better and others when he does not .”
“What is clear is that, in order to avoid future problems, the Spaniard intends to delay his return as long as necessary, looking to get comfortable on the pitch again.”
Nadal is currently still on the Barcelona Open 2023 entry list and should make a decision in the coming days as the ATP 500 tournament runs from April 17-23.
