Rafael Nadal is bidding for a calendar slam. The Spanish professional has already won two of the Grand Slams Australian Open and the French Open with a record-extending of 22nd majors. The player had been suffering from foot injuries. He even complained about the disturbances during several events this year.<\/p>\n
Nadal, after his historic 14th Roland Garros title in Paris, France told he will have to find a permanent solution for his foot and will be participating in the third Grand Slam if his foot allows. Meanwhile, while the 36-year-old is one of the favourites in the tournament talked about his injury. \u201cI can walk normal most of the days. When I wake up, I don\u2019t have the pain that I had in the last year and a half. The overall feelings are positive,\u201d as reported by tennis journalist Luigi Gatto.<\/p>\n
Nadal, who missed several events and majors last year due to his foot injury is bidding for a calendar slam this year and is a heavy favourite at the 2022 men\u2019s singles championships while the other two are defending champion Novak Djokovic and emerging star of Spain Carlos Alcaraz.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
