Rafael Nadal is poised to make his comeback on the tennis court next month, as his name features on the entry list for the ATP 250 tournament, the Qatar Open.
The tournament is scheduled to begin on February 19 in Doha. Nadal’s return comes after he had to withdraw from the Australian Open this month due to a small muscle tear.
The 37-year-old Spanish tennis star faced this setback during his comeback at the Brisbane International in January after a prolonged period of injury layoff.
Nadal’s fans will be eagerly anticipating his return to competitive action in Doha as he aims to resume his tennis journey after dealing with the challenges of injuries.
Recently, Spanish tennis icon has been appointed as the ambassador for the Saudi Tennis Federation, marking a significant move by the Gulf kingdom to enhance its presence in the professional tennis circuit.
