Rafael Nadal’s Rome Return

Rafael Nadal arrived in Rome and wasted no time, heading straight to the Foro Italico’s Campo Centrale for a rigorous practice session on Saturday afternoon. The 10-time champion, who missed the tournament last season due to a hip injury, sees this as his last chance to fine-tune before the French Open 2024. Vamos Rafa!

  1. I’ve got a feeling Rafa will do really well at Rome. He has been limiting himself but I expect him to free up a lot more in Rome. And then go all out for RG. I’m still praying for the miracle #15 at RG.
    Vamos Rafa!

    • Same here. I am anticipating the best version of Rafa thus far in 2024 at the Rome Masters. Rafa is definitely improving and will be a force at Roland Garros. Best of luck for an 11th Rome title and 15th Roland Garros title – We believe in Rafa!

      • Starting to see a LOT of other players on the men’s and women’s tours saying a lot of great admirable things about Rafa, especially given the ceremony at Madrid. Rafa is an inspiration to them all!

  2. So many injuries in Madrid-we truly realize how Rafa has been so mentally and physically
    tough throughout his career. Iga thought of Rafa as she toughed it out to win! Appreciate you even more, Rafael Nadal🥰🙏 enjoying every moment with you on court🍀🎾❤️

  3. Hello all…. For me, these tournaments are bittersweet as I watch with great anticipation and hope
    that Rafa plays well enough to progress to the next round… Rome has always been a favorite of his and
    may the force be with him as he tries to shake it up in at a favorite venue…

    Vamos Rafa!!!

  4. So happy Rafa is back. Missed him for the last year or so. Hope his health continues to improve so we can see him for a few years more. Go Rafa go!!
