Nadal’s emotional French Open exit and possible retirement

Spanish tennis legend Rafael Nadal played in what might possibly be his last appearance at the French Open yesterday. He lost in the first round to Alexander Zverev, who won the match 6-3, 7-6(7-5), 6-3.

But after the match, the King of Clay said he was “not 100% sure” if it was his last time at the French Open. He has won the tournament 14 times.

Nadal was emotional as he left, receiving a huge applause from the crowd. Several tennis players, including Novak Djokovic and Iga Swiatek, were there to watch him.

The tennis pro has been struggling with injuries since the 2023 Australian Open and had to miss most of the last season.
