Rafael Nadal is set to debut in the singles at the Paris 2024 Olympics, despite concerns over a thigh injury that has required him to play with a bandage on his right leg. While initially uncertain about his participation, reports indicate that he is feeling positive after warming up on the court and is prepared to face Hungary's Marton Fucsovics. Nadal's coach, Carlos Moya, had advised caution due to a previous setback but remains hopeful about Nadal's ability to compete. The Spanish tennis star, who has previously won Olympic gold, also successfully played alongside Carlos Alcaraz in doubles. A victory in the singles would lead to a highly anticipated match against rival Novak Djokovic in the second round. At 38, Nadal is aware of the challenges but aims to bring home a medal.
