Rafa Nadal He was able to say goodbye to tennis. He was able to play his last professional match. It fell into the hands of the Dutch Botic van de Zandschulp in a Davis Cup match where he had no choice: 6-4 in the first set and 6-4 in the second. His rival was simply better.
Your last tennis match? Everything will depend on what Spain does in this Davis Cup. Yeah Carlos Alcaraz and the double make the comeback Tuesday evening, Rafa could return to Martín Carpena’s field next Friday in the semi-final.
Martín Carpena devoted himself to Rafa from the start. Applause before departure. AND tears flowed during the Spanish anthem. He knew this could be his last day in tennis.
And although David Ferrercaptain of the Spanish team, has not revealed his plans, everything indicates that Rafa will not return to the field if Spain advances to the semi-finals against Germany or Canada on Friday.
Alcaraz, to defeat
Carlos Alcaraz plays in the second team. will face Tallon Grieskpoor. The team leader. The fittest tennis player in the world with Jannik Sinner. Both shared the four Grand Slams of the season: Roland Garros and Wimbledon for Carlitos.
In doubles, Marcel Granollersworld number 1 in doubles, could partner Alcaraz in the final match. Spain, on the ropes, in the Davis Cup in Malaga.
