History repeated itself once again this year, to the delight of fans of Rafael Nadal. The tennis player who has just turned 36 has achieved the immeasurable feat of winning Roland-Garros for the 14th time, which now brings his total of Grand Slam victories to 22. For that, he had to eliminate Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev, before easily beating the surprise Casper Ruud in the final. The Spaniard pushes the limits of his body to get there, even if it means making other athletes cringe…
Indeed, suffering from Müller-Weiss syndrome for more than fifteen years, Rafael Nadal suffers a lot in his left foot. A pain that is difficult to bear and which forced the husband of Xisca Perello to undergo numerous infiltrations to numb his foot during the Paris fortnight. The sportsman indicated that he was going to try to find another solution to continue playing and it seems to have been done. Before returning to his Balearic island, he stopped in Barcelona to undergo his first radiofrequency session therea treatment supposed to reduce the pain he feels in his foot.
After this stopover, he therefore went to Mallorca, at home and when he got out of a car in front of the entrance to Palma de Mallorca airport, we could see a Rafael Nadal far from being in good shape. As the video shows, Roger Federer’s great rival is forced to lean on two crutches so as not to put his left foot on the ground. Despite his precarious state, he still stopped to sign autographs for the fans who came to congratulate him after his new coronation in Paris.
