French Open champion Rafa Nadal will play at Wimbledon later this month if his body allows him to, the Spaniard said after winning Roland Garros for a record-extending 14th time.
“I am going to be at Wimbledon if my body is ready. Wimbledon is not a tournament I want to miss,” said Nadal, who has been suffering from a chronic foot injury.
Nadal, a double Wimbledon champion, destroyed Norwegian Casper Ruud 6-3 6-3 6-0 to stay undefeated in Roland Garros finals…
Rafael Nadal still has not officially confirmed the news that broke on Saturday, namely that he and his wife, Maria Francisca Perello, have become parents for the first time.
But on Thursday, the world No 2 did the next best thing, thanking everyone for their well-wishes and more importantly, confirming that “everyone” is happy and well.
“Hello everyone. After a few days and many loving messages, I just wanted to thank you all,” he wrote on Twitter. We are very happy and everyone is very well! A big hug!”
Marca revealed the news of the baby’s birth on Saturday but there are no details yet of the name from the Nadal family.
