Rafael Nadal is getting ready for the Rio Open and of course he doesn’t miss the beauty of Rio de Janeiro.

The world no.3 said he was eager to see the Carnival (article) and he is also very happy to train with the special view of Christ the Redeemer.

Rafa posted a picture on Facebook saying ”Entrenando bajo la mirada del Cristo Redentor… Ya en Río de Janeiro!! Training in full view of Christ the Redeemer… Already in Rio de Janeiro!!

“I am ready to compete”

The King of Clay said that he had a good training and he feels absolutely ready to compete “I’m well prepared, I have trained every day to get well in the tournament. Winning is something that we will see later, but I’m prepared to compete.”

Rafa will defend his title in Rio next week. The Spaniard last year won the final against Dolgopolov with the result of 6-3 7-6 (3)
