Nadal, 37, missed last year’s French Open with a left hip flexor injury and underwent surgery last June. In announcing his withdrawal before last year’s French Open, Nadal said that he will likely retire in the second half of 2024.
However, his task has been made difficult after drawing drawing Zverev, who is one of the favourites for the title.
Recall that the German fourth seed recently won the Italian Open, the last top-level ATP Tour event before the French Open.
