While the decisive phase of the tournament begins in Wimbledon, the injured Rafael Nadal is working on his comeback in Mallorca. “He works in the physical field, but cannot do tennis training yet because the doctor advised him against it,” said Nadal’s uncle Toni Nadal in an interview with the online portal “Clay”. Nadal must first have fully recovered from his hip problems. “In about a month he will be able to train again on the tennis court.”

Nadal played his last match in January at the Australian Open. Since then he has had to pause because of the hip injury. At the beginning of May, the 37-year-old announced that he would not return to the tour until next year. 2024 should then be the farewell year for the 22-time Grand Slam tournament champion.
