Nadal, without a party and with an hour of sleep

Rafa Nadal was scheduled to fly this Monday to Manacor, via Doha and Barcelona, ​​but technical problems have prevented the plane from taking off from Melbourne before midnight Tuesday in Australia. Before the delay of the plane, Nadal arrived at the airport with barely an hour of sleep after his epic five hour and 23 minute match against Medvedev in the Australian Open final. The meeting ended after one in the morning and between the trophy ceremony and the attention of the media, They gave the Balearic 4:30 in Melbourne Park.

Then the player and his team arrived at the hotel around 5:00 and there was no time for celebrations because the next day (for today) the champion had the photo session with the trophy and more attention to the press and some advertising commitment after lunch after 4:00 p.m. local time.

“I have no plan, really, other than getting married again and trying to recover by working a little,” Nadal explains. “After the body beating I’ve had, the best way to recover is to work. It will be in a gentle way, but active recovery is much healthier than inactive recovery. I have to take care of my body so that I can make the right decisions,” says Rafa, who will surely hold a celebration with the whole family beforehand.
