Although happy about the recent victory alongside Carlos Alcaraz in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games in doubles, Rafael Nadal's expression briefly changed when asked about his singles match. The discomfort in the muscle of his right leg continues to raise doubts that have not been resolved by playing doubles. The Spaniard talks to the press and shares his current uncertainty.
Will he play tomorrow in the second shift?
"Do I play at 2:00? I don't understand the schedule in any case," Rafa said at first, discovering through the press the shift in which he was scheduled to play this coming Sunday. "It seems absurd that I play at 2:00 when it's now 10:00 at night, but well. I don't know, the truth is I don't know. I will have to return to the village, talk to the team, and make the decision that I believe is most appropriate to have more chances of achieving results for Spain," explained Nadal, as reported by Carrusel Deportivo.
"Not always more is more, sometimes more is less. By saying that, I'm not saying I won't play, just so you know," clarified a baffled Rafa upon learning the time he would play and facing a difficult decision. It's a reflection that we will make, and we will try to make the decision that we believe is most appropriate as a team to give ourselves the best chances. Tomorrow we will decide if I play or not; perhaps we decide today, but now I'm not ready to answer because I don't know. I need to discuss it with everyone."
Victorious debut with Carlitos
"We knew it would be a tough match; here, all matches are fierce. Perhaps on the circuit, you experience doubles matches played at a different intensity, but here, they are the most important matches played every four years. With the maximum excitement of playing with Carlos and on this stage. There has been a bit of everything. For a while, I couldn't make a return, then I improved. Last night, I experienced an unforgettable moment that will always stay in my memory."
