After announcing his resignation from his participation in the Wash Cup and with him Six Kings Slam As the only confirmed event with the doubt as to whether or not the Davis Cup will be played in Malaga, there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the immediate future of Rafa Nadal.
Is this his last active season? Will there be a new opportunity in 2025? Many voices ask the manacorí to continue, but others believe that the time has come to retire.
This is the case of Garbine Muguruzawho retired last April at the age of 30. In statements to ‘tennis.com’, the Spanish-Venezuelan gave her example to Rafa.
“I was totally prepared. Life was sending me physical signs and I couldn’t wait to move on to the next chapter,” he began.
The former world number 1 advises Nadal to focus on his family: “Nadal is also very prepared. His body, his mind, everything… It’s time to enjoy his son too! I see him smiling all the time with his baby and I think: ‘Why are you still on the track? Go home, take the boat, go to Mallorca‘. “I think he gave absolutely everything.”
In fact, Muguruza revealed that Rafa Nadal himself told her in the Laureus Prize that it was his last season.
“He told me: ‘This is my last year‘, but he didn’t share anything else. And I don’t want to ask him personal questions,” the former tennis player concluded.
