    Uncertainty from tennis ace Rafael Nadal over whether this year's French Open will be his last

    Uncertainty from tennis ace Rafael Nadal over whether this year's French Open will be his last


    The 22-time Grand Slam champion has played in just 11 matches since January 2023, due to hip and abdominal injuries.

    The Spaniard - now ranked 276th - has previously indicated that he expects to retire after the 2024 season.

    However, Nadal explains why he's not ready to shut the door on his Roland Garros career.



    Nadal takes on fourth seed Alexander Zverev in the first round this evening .
