I think it might be he's retiring this year and wife is also pregnant. He'll retire with 24 slams, most probably completing the CYGS.

The day Nadal retires, will be the day tennis takes a huge hit. Will be left to likes of zverev to carry the sport lol

 

[nolhman]

I don’t think Nadal is retiring this year at all. Things just being overplayed

 

[Phillo]

He is the most popular athlete in Spain and one of the popular athletes in the world. Don't you think public would like to know how he is doing health-wise, how his foot is doing after the RFA treatment he had undergone recently, and his plans to play Wimbledon or not?

When the public are interested about him, he also gives business to newspapers and internet media. He is a public figure. He sells news and newspapers.

Hate to break it to u but we’re in Grass season now & most tennis purists don’t think much about a player who hasn’t made a WB final in over a decade.

Even Raonic & Cilic made WB finals more recently.

 

[Waz]

It's because he's the GOAT and a living legend. At this point it could even be argued that he's bigger than tennis.

Typical arrogant Dulltard.

See, if you guys were ATP players then Nadal would have already beaten you before you even stepped on the court because you are letting stuff like this rattle you. You are not strong enough mentally to even handle a press conference or a few comments about an injury.

Lol, I still put up a better fight than fanboy Ruud.

 

[VamosRafa123]

Dont like the PR.
I think it will bad, very bad no?

 

[Rik1001]

Why does he need to hold a press conference to announce his decision regarding his participation at Wimbledon? Can’t he just release a statement on Twitter?

Why the fuck not? Some people just like the feel of a nice piece of hard wood.

... Because this not right time to talk about it now,no?

 

[Johnny44]

If it’s not to announce his retirement then he’s an attention seeking drama queen.

 

[freakish]

must be about chronic shoulder injury..

Typical arrogant Dulltard.

I think at the end of the day we chose our usernames wisely.

Federer Waz the Goat.

Nadal will Always be the Goat.

 

[GalePet]

Such a drama queen.

At least got you interested enough to get in here.
Probably you gonna tune on for the presser as well, because in the end of the day you just love this drama, to use your words..

 

[VamosRafa123]

Its super weird for me if he will do PR just to announce that he playing WB this year
Im sure there is something extra.

 

[Critic007]

He’s hoping people actually care. He’s such a piss poor grass player, no one actually cares, But he’s gotta tell the world that he is injured it might raise a few eyebrows if he won 3 slams in a row at age 35? With a foot Issue?

Integrity beyond belief.

 

[AlwaysTennis]

Maybe it's also to address the rumors about the pregnancy? Maybe he will also explain the latest treatment he has had and also shut down the two idiotic cyclists who made headlines by mentioning Rafa and doping in the same sentence? It doesn't have to be negative such as not playing Wimbledon or retirement.

 

[Fargif]

A retirement announcement hopefully so tennis fans can rejoice

Haters like you probably.

 

[textenfan]

Surprising he's play a golf tournament on an extremely injured foot

“He was seen training on grass in Mallorca on Thursday, 11 days before the first day’s play at SW19, to give fans hope that he is still on track to play the third grand slam tournament of the year, and has scheduled a press conference for Friday where he is expected to confirm his participation in Wimbledon.”

50 million followers between Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. FIFTY.

 

[alypen]

Doesn't he usually / often do this?

 

[Passion Alcaraz]

He is training on Grass because Golf is played on Grass, he wants to peak for the Golf tournament.
