The 2021 season has been a mixed bag for the great Rafael Nadal. The year was filled with loads of ups, but also had its fair share of lows. Unfortunately, the Spanish legend failed to capture a Grand Slam title this year. In addition, his campaign was plagued with injuries too. While he is taking a break from the circuit at the moment, he has been enjoying his time off the court. Recently, Nadal took part in a charity golf tournament, which he even ended up winning.

Nadal wins charity golf event in Mallorca

Despite missing out on Wimbledon, the Olympic Games as well as the US Open, Nadal has been recovering well for the near future. Earlier, he had committed to play at a charity golf tournament in his home country. Owing to the injury, many people expected him to skip the event. On the contrary, Rafa kept his word and took part in the tournament, to the delight of fans. At the event in Mallorca, Nadal had a great time on the course.

What’s more, the 20-time Grand Slam winner even won the charity event’s title. It was yet another trophy for the grinding individual who is so used to winning. The Spaniard reportedly has a very high level in the sport of golf, which he must’ve put into use at Mallorca. As is seen in the video, Rafael Nadal won the exhibition competition and raised the trophy sky high.

Mildly underwhelming 2021 for Rafael Nadal

If you asked Nadal himself, he would probably admit that 2021 has been nowhere near his best season. He failed to capture the big titles, and an age-old foot injury of his reemerged. As a result, the former World No.1 had a lackluster outing and saw a slip in his rankings. The most disappointing outcome of the season for Nadal would’ve been his result at the French Open 2021.

After claiming the opening set against Novak Djokovic, the southpaw lost his grasp of the match, and exited in the semifinal. He was the firm favorite to win the tournament yet again, but it was not to be. He did make a comeback after Tokyo 2020, but to no avail. Nadal was sent back to the sidelines, and continues his recouping process for the upcoming season.

It is good to see Rafael Nadal enjoying himself off the court, despite not being able to play. It remains to be seen how successful his return to the tour will be, considering the odds are stacked against him. But if there’s anything Rafa does brilliantly, it is defying all the odds!
