Due to the coronavirus pandemic, many tennis events in 2020 were canceled or postponed. This is why the ATP Tour had to come up with a revised schedule for 2020 and they came up with a grueling one. The Grand Slams – the US Open and the French Open are to be played in almost the same month. And this has raised the question of whether players will play both events. Toni Nadal has just told us what Rafael Nadal might do. Check it out.

Will Rafael Nadal Play Both Events?

Grand Slams are the most physically exhausting events as they are five-setters. Playing 2 in the same month might not be possible for many players but can Rafael Nadal do it? On this topic, his uncle Toni Nadal said,

“I think Rafael can also consider choosing one just like Djokovic has said … With the US Open, Madrid, Rome and Roland Garros in a row, I think that many players will go for one. Playing all four tournaments all at once can be a problem but it depends on each one.”

The Spaniard is in a tough spot here as he won both the US Open and the French Open last year. This means if he is going to pick one Grand Slam to play, he is going to lose all the points he earned from the other Major title. And that is something he does not want.

We all would want Rafa to play both Grand Slams but he has to do what’s best for him. If he does choose one Slam to play, everyone will be expecting him to pick the French Open. This is because it is his favorite tournament in the entire season.

He has won the title 12 times and has only lost there twice. He will be looking for his 13th title and he can get it when the tournament starts on September 27th.
