Rafael Nadal is preparing a major tennis event at his academy on October 3rd to commemorate its tenth anniversary. There is huge anticipation to see the Spaniard back on the court. Nadal is already training at a high intensity to showcase a great version of himself, in an event that will feature two teams. One of them will be captained by Rafa himself, while the other will be led by Andy Murray.

This has been confirmed by both the player and the academy on social media, revealing the first participant of a list that will be announced soon. Many dream of seeing Roger Federer at the event, but there are no updates on that yet. In any case, Murray's presence is a tremendous boost for a day that will be a great tennis celebration.

More participants will be revealed for the 10th Anniversary event of the Rafa Nadal Academy

A full house of spectators is expected to follow everything that happens, marking the first time Rafael Nadal will be seen playing tennis since his retirement from professional tennis, during that unfortunate Davis Cup tie where the Netherlands defeated Spain, leaving a very bitter taste for all those present.

There will be great interest in seeing what other names join this celebration of the tenth anniversary of one of the world's leading tennis academies, which has become Nadal's major project since he was a player until today. The facilities are world-class and have continued to grow under the influence of the Mallorcan player, so it is expected that October 3rd will be filled with surprises and unforgettable moments for all who have been part of the project.
