Rafael Nadal took on Casper Ruud in Mexico City in a huge arena as the Spaniard made an announcement regarding Mexico.
Nadal played many times over the years in Mexico but he announced that this match in Mexico City was probably his last one in the country. He was in Acapulco last year winning the event by beating Norrie 6-4 6-4 in the final but he won't be returning in 2023.
He said:
“It will most likely be the last time I play in Mexico, Acapulco 2023 is not on my calendar and the 2024 season seems far away. Now is the time to enjoy this moment to the fullest and play in an emblematic setting, with many people and in a country where I have always felt loved.”
He and Ruud delivered a really good match but fans were disappointed to know that it might be the last time Nadal plays in a country that loves him.
