Feliciano confirms that Nadal will play the Mutua Madrid Open

The director of the Mutua Madrid Open, Feliciano López, confirmed this Tuesday the participation of Rafa Nadal in the Mutua Madrid Open, which this year will be held exceptionally between the days September 12 and 20.

“I have spoken to my friend Rafa Nadal and he has confirmed his participation in Madrid next September! We wait for you as always with open arms at the Caja Mágica! “López announced on his Twitter account.

Its about first tournament confirming Nadal's participation once the circuit, paralyzed since March by the pandemic, resumes in mid-August in Washington.

The big question right now is whether the US Open, scheduled to start on August 31, will take place, while Roland Garros will start on September 27 and plans to compete with the public in the stands.
