Rafael Nadal will not play the Monte Carlo Masters 1000. The Spaniard has not played since January.
Nadal missed almost all of 2023 due to a grade 2 injury to the iliopsoas in his left leg. The former number 1 and winner of 21 Grand Slams once again postponed his return to the courts, and opened a very big question about his immediate future and the end of his extraordinary career. The first major tournament of the European clay tour will start on Sunday.
