The Spanish press claims that Rafael Nadal will announce Thursday at a press conference that he will not be present at Roland-Garros. Injured at the Australian Open, the Spaniard has not played since January in Melbourne skipping the entire clay court season until today.

Since the beginning of 2023, "Rafa" has played only 4 games, for 3 defeats. "No, Rafa is not thinking about his retirement," said the uncle and former coach of tennis player Toni Nadal.
