Rafael Nadal has made his way to Wimbledon after winning an unprecedented 14th title at Roland Garros last month. With the victory, the Spaniard is now rewriting the history books at 36, with more challenges coming his way this week on the grass courts at SW19.

Nadal underwent treatment throughout and after the French Open for his persistent foot issue. He returns to Wimbledon three years after his semi-final loss against Roger Federer.

Nadal irate after repeated questions about his foot

The Spaniard was present as part of the pre-match conference ahead of his first round match against Francisco Cerundolo. After being quizzed by many journalists about his foot, Nadal did not seem too pleased. He said, “Well, are you going to talking [about] my foot today? Not anymore.”

“If it’s fine for you guys. I have always been very open, but we cannot be talking about my foot every single day. We forget the most important thing that is tennis. I can’t tell you, I don’t have experience on that. Something new. I didn’t try it,” he added.

Nadal opted for a new foot treatment called radiofrequency ablation after the French Open. The Spaniard will begin the tournament as the second seed at Wimbledon.
