Madrid/UNI/Xinhua: Rafael Nadal confirmed on Friday that he will not play again this year due to a niggling foot injury he sustained in the French Open in the month of June.

Nadal made his announcement on social media saying, "I want to tell you that unfortunately, I have to end the 2021 season. Honestly, I have suffered a lot more than I should have done with my foot and I need to take some time out."

"After speaking with my team and my family, the decision has been taken and I think this is the decision the right decision to allow me to recover and to recover well," he wrote. (sic)

The 35-year-old, who is currently fourth in the ATP world rankings, has already missed several major competitions this year, including Wimbledon, the Tokyo Olympics and the Canadian and Cincinnati Masters.
