Rafael Nadal continues his comeback this week at the Internazionali BNL d’Italia, an ATP Masters 1000 event he has won a record 10 times. The Spaniard returned from injury last month in Barcelona before he played in Madrid, advancing to the fourth round.
Nadal lost to Jiri Lehecka in the Spanish capital last Tuesday. The 37-year-old then returned home before he arrived in the Italian capital at the weekend.
“I have been a few days at home, then arrived here on Saturday,” Nadal said in his pre-tournament press conference on Wednesday. “I was able more or less to practice well the past few days. I’m excited to be playing in Rome. It’s a tournament that brings me back to a lot of unforgettable memories. My third week almost in a row on the Tour, third tournament in a row. That didn’t happen since a super long time ago. That’s good news.”
