This is probably one of the hardest decisions Rafael Nadal had to take in his career. While he was perfectly launched to reach the final and meet his lifelong rival Novak Djokovic, the 36-year-old Spaniard was forced to withdraw from the semi-finals of the London Grand Slam. A real heartbreaker for fans of the tennis legend, but after his big problems with his left foot, it was an abdominal injury that forced him to give up.
Forced to attend the Serbian’s 7th victory at Wimbledon, Rafael Nadal can console himself by remembering that he won the first two Grand Slams of the season, including his fourteenth victory in Paris. A unique moment in the career of the tennis player, who will soon be a dad, and which he was able to share with those close to him, starting with his sister, Mary Isabel, always present at his side when he comes to Roland-Garros. Very close, they both live in one of the most beautiful places on the planet, in Mallorca, in the Balearic Islands.
Maria Isabel spends a pleasant Sunday with her family
A privileged vacation spot for the biggest football stars, this little corner of paradise is the delight of Rafael Nadal and his family. Maria Isabel, very active on Instagram where she has nearly 160,000 subscribers, has also returned to Mallorca after her stay in Paris. On her latest publication, we can see her enjoying her weekend with her loved ones. “Family Sunday”, she writes in the comments of a photo where we can see her next to one of her cousins on the front of a boat with the turquoise sea in the background. Dressed ina pretty bikini with a pattern reminiscent of the giraffe, the sister of the tennis player is radiant. A photo that visibly pleased Internet users since nearly 10,000 have it liked.
