Praga.- The mythical former Czech player Ivan Lendl assured today that he looks forward to the return to the courts of the Spaniard Rafael Nadal, out because of knee problems since June.
Lendl, said today that for sure Spain will miss Nadal, but that his presence Could have been counterproductive as well.
“I think we have to see what Rafael Nadal they’d have”, the 52 year old former player said in a ceremony with the teammates with whom he won the Davis Cup in 1980: Pavel Slozil, Jan Kodes and Tomas Smid.
“Having the Rafael Nadal who was physically fine during the year is obviously better than the Rafael Nadal who would have come back here to play his first match in six months. That would be very, very difficult, even for a player like Rafa”.
“I hope he can come back at 100%” he said about the former numer one, who’s starting to train to come back in late December.
“I want him to come back. He’s a great champion and a very good person. I like to see him and I hope he’s fine and comes back soon”.
Lendl, who remained away from tennis since he retired nearly two decades ago, came back a year ago as Couch of Murray, who in September won his first Grand Slam.
