网球》兹维列夫大胆预言 纳达尔准备在法网退休？
2023/01/14 09:07
〔体育中心／综合报导〕德国名将兹维列夫（Alexander Zverev）
大胆预言今年的网坛大事，将是西班牙“蛮牛”纳达尔（Rafael Nadal）
在法国网球公开赛决定退休。
兹维列夫接受“欧洲体育”采访时表示，“我觉得纳达尔会在法网退休，
这不是我所希望看到的事，但我认为他会打出一场非凡赛事，可能会夺冠，
然后向大家说再见。”
36岁的纳达尔生涯历经过大小伤势，也早有过不少退休传闻，但他去年在澳
网、法网夺冠，再度破除外界质疑，并坐拥22座大满贯冠军金杯，排名男单
史上第一，而他将以头号种子之姿在下周一展开的澳网寻求卫冕。
不过，纳达尔在去年美网之后表现欠佳，在巴黎名人赛一战告负，ATP年终
总决赛3场赢1场，接着今年初的联合杯更吞下2连败，2023年澳网的连霸之
路也备受考验。

RAFA'S READY Rafael Nadal to RETIRE at Roland Garros this year,
Zverev predicts as Australian Open rival says ‘I don’t wish him this’
Chris Brannan
ALEXANDER Zverev believes the 2023 French Open could be the last time
we see Rafael Nadal on a tennis court.
The German world No12 has returned to the sport this year after a
horrific injury which saw him tear three ligaments in his right ankle
during his semi-final match against Nadal at Roland Garros in 2022.
But as Zverev looks forward to a year in which he hopes brings a first
ever Grand Slam title, he believes that it could be the last for the
tennis legend.
Not only this, the former No2 believes the Spaniard will take his last
bow by claiming his 15th title on the famous clay court at the French Open.
Speaking to Eurosport, Zverev said: "Rafael Nadal will announce his
retirement at Roland Garros.
"I don't wish him this, but I think he will play a big tournament,
maybe wins it and then says goodbye."
Speculation of retirement has surrounded Nadal for the last few years,
yet rumours have always been shut down by the 22-time Slam winner.
But at 36, Nadal has shown no signs of slowing down, claiming the
Australian and French Open titles last year whilst sitting second
in the world rankings behind countryman Carlos Alcaraz.
If Nadal was too retire, he would join long-time friend Roger Federer
who decided to call it a day on his career last year, four years after
his final Grand Slam win in Australia 2018.
Before any talk of retirement continues however, both Zeverev and Nadal
have the Australian Open to focus on.
