Nadal's sincere opinion on the new tennis courts at the Bernabéu
The Mutua Madrid Open has wanted to innovate in 2026 with courts located in the middle of the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium for the top stars of the tournament to practice. Today, it was inaugurated, and there was a small surprise as Jannik Sinner, Iga Swiatek, and Rafael Nadal shared the court with Jude Bellingham and Thibaut Courtois, two of the Real Madrid's great stars. Afterward, Nadal gave his opinion on the matter. "Spectacular. Little more can be asked. It is also true that when this unique stadium was built, it was done thinking that things like these could happen. Being able to play tennis in this place is something unique and that will remain in history. For everyone, coming to one of the most special places in the world of sports is impressive."
