On the business end of things, Nadal withdrew from the 2021 season, due to a foot injury that has been bothering him since the French Open. He did make a short return, ahead of the US Open. But with the injury coming back to haunt him, a withdrawal was inevitable. Hence, fans now hope to see him back on the courts in the upcoming 2022 season.

Can Nadal change his fate and surpass his ‘big 3’ colleagues with a 21st Grand Slam title?
