The tennis player will travel to London on Monday, but before that he changed the racket for the golf club and competed in the Balearic Islands championship, where he was fourth.
Rafael Nadal this Saturday he changed the tennis racket for golf clubs and occupied the fourth position in the balearic championship contested in the field of Son Servera (Mallorca) by delivering a card with 76 strokes, 4 above par for the field.
A day after announcing he was going to the Wimbledon tournament if the positive sensations he experienced this week in his training sessions on the grass courts of the Mallorca Country Club are preserved, Nadal returned to participate in a golf competition, the other great sport he does. The winner of 22 Grand Slam titles, the last of them two weeks ago at Roland Garros, had an uneven start to the first holes of the course at Son Servera.
He needed 8 shots to get stuck on the 5th hole (par 5), and although he reacted with a ‘birdie’ on the 9th hole, the Majorcan tennis player made two ‘bogeys’ before facing off in the final round, which he was more successful with 7 holes that ended on par, a bogey and a birdie.
Majorcan tournament leader was Marc Bisellach with 72 strokes, followed by Víctor Mirón (75) and Patrick Woolmington (75).
As announced by Nadal, this Monday he will travel to London to face the tournament of Hurlingham exhibition that starts on Tuesday in the British capital, and where it will coincide with Murcian tennis player Carlos Alcaraz and Serbian Novak Djokovic.
Later, if his injury -Müller Weiss syndrome- allows him, he will compete at Wimbledon, a tournament he has won twice (2008 and 2010) and which he has not been to since 2019.
