Nadal is playing his first tournament in six weeks at the Madrid Open after suffering a stress fracture of a rib at Indian Wells in March. His loss to Taylor Fritz in the final, when he was clearly physically hampered, ended his 20-match winning streak to start the season. Now the 35-year-old is playing catch-up to reach peak fitness in the time for the French Open, which he was won on 13 previous occasions.

‘Talking about the injury, I’m recovered, I feel good,’ he said. ‘Talking about my tennis game and preparations, well, it’s a completely different story.‘Anyone who has broken a rib knows how limiting it is, very painful, especially the first weeks. I wasn’t able to do anything without a lot of difficulties, even to fall asleep because of the pain.

‘I have improved compared to when I came here but I still have up and downs because it’s been a long time without being in these kind of situations and it’s going to be a difficult week, for sure.’
