Rafael Nadal is finally about to get back to competitions after a very long Hiatus.
The Spanish sensation decided to skip the American stint so as to get 100% focussed in having yet another triumphant run on clay. Rafa will play the Internazionali d’Italia before trying to win his 13th Roland Garros title!
The King of clay left a lovely message in Italian during the presentation of the Internazionali d’Italia confirming his presence in the tournament that will be played next week. Raf has won the tournament in Rome 9 times!
According to reports, Rafa will land in Rome already on Wednesday to get accustomed to the local environment.
