Rafael Nadal targets a fifth US Open and 23rd Grand Slam title in New York from next week as Novak Djokovic clings desperately onto a forlorn hope of even being allowed to set foot in New York.
Rafael Nadal is enduring his most difficult year as he prepares for the US Open, according to Eurosport expert Alex Corretja. The Spaniard has dealt with injury problems for much of the last few years and the physical problems for the 36-year-old do not seem to be abating. Ad Nadal won both the Australian Open and French Open, but after withdrawing before his Wimbledon semi-final against Nick Kyrgios he has had little chance to prepare for the upcoming US Open, which begins on August 31.
Rafael Nadal targets a fifth US Open and 23rd Grand Slam title in New York from next week as Novak Djokovic clings desperately onto a forlorn hope of even being allowed to set foot in New York. Nineteen years after making his debut, the 36-year-old Nadal drags his injury-prone body into a tournament he won in 2010, 2013, 2017 and 2019, the year of his last appearance. The Spaniard has had to sit out the US Open four times in his career and there are once again fresh doubts over his physical ability to survive a gruelling two weeks at Flushing Meadows. Since an abdomen injury forced him to hand Nick Kyrgios a walkover into the Wimbledon final, Nadal has played just once -- a first-up loss to Borna Coric in Cincinnati. "I need to move forward and just start to think about the energy that the crowd give me in New York," said Nadal, who has already captured two of the season's three Slams at the Australian and French Opens. "It's a very special place for me, and I enjoy it. There have been unforgettable moments there, and I'm going to try my very best every single day to be ready for that."
John McEnroe believes that Rafael Nadal is now the favourite to end the year as the World no 1.

John McEnroe believes Rafael Nadal is «absolutely the favourite» to end the year as world No. 1 ahead of the last major of the year at the US Open. Nadal — winner of the Australian and French Opens — has shared the major crowns with long-time rival Novak Djokovic in 2022, with the Serb defeating Nick Kyrgios in the final of Wimbledon to take the SW19 title.
The spectator accused by Nick Kyrgios of looking as if she'd had "about 700 drinks" during this year's Wimbledon final is taking legal action against the Australian for defamation.
