MOSCOW, January 5 Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal said that After a match against Australian Jordan Thompson, he feels muscle pain.
On Friday, Nadal played his third singles match after injury, losing 7:5, 6:7 (6:8), 3:6 to Australian Jordan Thompson in the quarterfinals of the tournament in Brisbane, Australia. The meeting lasted 3 hours 26 minutes. In early June, Nadal underwent arthroscopy in the area of the iliopsoas muscle in a clinic in Barcelona. The Spaniard last reached the quarterfinals at an Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) tournament in June 2022 at Wimbledon.
“”Yes, this is very similar to what happened last year, but this pain is different, I feel unpleasant sensations in the muscles. Then I immediately realized that something radical had happened, today this did not happen. A lot of things “may happen to my body after a year without playing tennis. I really hope that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow the pain will stop. If not, then we will conduct a medical examination and we will see,” said the 22-time Grand Slam champion in a post-match interview.
Nadal is 37 years old. The tournament in Brisbane was the Spaniard's first since competing at the Australian Open in January 2023.
