Rafael Nadal (37) it's back. After his retirement from the courts almost a year ago, the Mallorcan will play his next official match in the Brisbane tournament, the first week of January. During this time away from competition, Nadal has enjoyed the little Rafael Jrwho was born just a year ago, the result of his marriage to Mery Perelló (35).
“Hello everyone, after a year out of competition, the time has come to return. It will be in Brisbane and it will be in the first week of January. See you there,” the tennis player said in a short video, which he published on their social networks.
During the summer, the winner of 22 Grand Slams enjoyed a few days of rest with his family in the Corinth Canal area, in Greece. Although he does not usually share his private life on social networks, the athlete published a tender image on a yacht with his wife and his son.
Before that trip, Nadal had hip surgery in June, two days before his 37th birthday. For his part, the tennis player's press team confirmed that “the normal recovery process is estimated at five months, always taking into account the biological times of said structure.”
