In a few weeks, Paris will once again be the center of tennis when the French Open, the traditional clay court tournament, takes place from May 20 to June 9, 2024. This annual highlight once again promise
s high tension and thrilling duels on the red clay of Roland Garros.
But the tennis star whose name will forever be associated with this tournament is facing an uncertain tournament:
Rafael Nadal, the 14-time winner of the French Open, is fighting for his comeback on the ATP Tour – Nadal has not played a competitive match on clay for almost two years.
After a three-month break from tennis, Nadal recently returned at the tournament in Barcelona, but his comeback did not go as hoped.
Alex de Minaur stopped him in the second round and showed him that his return to the big stage will not be a sure thing.
Nevertheless, there is still hope that the Spaniard can once again make a splash at the French Open as a clay court specialist, even if time is slowly running out for him.
Will Nadal be able to win his 15th title at this prestigious tournament or is his dream of another French Open title a long way off?
