The Spanish legendwho turned 38 on June 3, could get regularity in recent monthsin which he played the ATP 500 in Barcelona, the Masters 1000 in Madrid and Rome, and Roland Garros.
Although the results were not the best, Nadal felt much better from a physical point of view and did not rule out continuing to play in 2025something that at the beginning of the year seemed like a utopia.
Alcaraz, for his part, has just won his third Grand Slam title by lifting the Musketeers Cup at Roland Garroswhere he won five sets in the final to the German Alexander Zverev. With that result she climbed to the second position in the ranking and it will be a great emotional boost to fight for No. 1 for the rest of the season.
Tennis at the Olympic Games will take place at the Roland Garros facilitiestournament in which Nadal became champion 14 times and precisely where it comes from getting the Alcaraz title, so They will be great entertainers in both singles and doubles.
