Few days ago we had the shocking news that Rafael Nadal would not be able to defend his titles in Toronto and Cincinnati because of a wrist injury. The worst part of it was what the Mallorcan was also in doubt for the US Open. The world no.2 said that he had to wait 2 or 3 weeks before taking off the splint that is immobilizing the wrist.
From the Spanish Federation
The Spanish Federation yesterday gave some good news “Following a scan and clinical evaluation, his progress is on track, although he will still have tests from time to time,”
Nadal is the defending champion of the US Open after beating Novak Djokovic 6-2 3-6 6-4 6-1 in last year’s final.
