Rafael Nadal announces retirement from professional tennis | Tennis News


Rafael Nadal on Thursday has announced his retirement from professional tennis.

The 38-year-old will make his final appearance for Spain at November’s Davis Cup Finals in Malaga.

In a video message released on Thursday, Nadal said: “I am here to let you know I am retiring from professional tennis.

“The reality is that it has been some difficult years, the last two especially.

“I don’t think I have been able to play without limitations.”

Nadal has won 22-grand slam singles title and a record 14 French Open titles.

Festive offer

Nadal withdrew last month from the US Open, meaning he missed three of the four Grand Slam tournaments in 2024. He last played in reaching the men’s doubles quarterfinals at the Olympics, where he also lost in the second round of singles to Novak Djokovic.

The Davis Cup knockout phase will be played from November 19-24. Nadal’s career has been hampered by injuries and he missed the 2023 French Open and was beaten in the first round by German Alexander Zverev this year.

He won his last Roland Garros title in 2022 and left the Paris clay on a jaw-dropping 112-4 win-loss record.
