Nadal’s career has been hampered by injuries; he missed the 2023 French Open and was beaten in the first round by German Alexander Zverev this year.
He won his last Roland Garros title in 2022 and left the tournament on a jaw-dropping 112-4 win-loss record.
Nadal’s successes came during an extraordinary period when he, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and, for a while, Andy Murray, dominated the sport.
