Nadal announced last Thursday that he will not play Roland Garros and will stop training in the coming months. He suffered a psoas injury last January at the Australian Open, from which he has not been able to recover.
Despite long periods of inactivity throughout his career due to injuries, Nadal will never have gone through such a long time without playing. The winner of 22 Grand Slam titles showed serenity as he announced that for the first time since 2005, when he won the first of his 14 titles.
