Rafa Nadal returns to training thinking about 2021

Despite the intrigue that still exists about the start of the 2021 season in the world of tennis with the possible change of date of the Australian Open due to restrictions in the country, Rafa Nadal has already started preparing this Monday for the next calendar tournaments.

The Balearic tennis player uploaded a photo to his Instagram account in which he appears training on one of the covered courts of the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar in Manacor, wearing arm and leg warmers. “Back to work! I disconnected a few days after London and now it's time to go back to training and routine”Nadal wrote.

The Manacor tennis player faces the 2021 season after a great 2020 in which, despite resisting the Australian Open and giving up the US Open, he was proclaimed champion in Acapulco and added his thirteenth title at Roland Garros to equal Federer with 20 Grand Slam. To the usual challenges of each season for Nadal in 2021, another challenge is added: the Tokyo Olympic Games, where he will try to achieve a new Olympic gold after the one achieved in Beijing 2008 and in Rio 2016, in this case in doubles with Marc Lopez.
