Speaking about the GOAT race in Abu Dhabi, Rafa reminded that Novak Djokovic had a massive advantage over him and Roger Federer in the season behind us, embracing a regular schedule.
"I understand that the conversation is always there.
It's primarily related to Novak, who has been playing almost every week, unlike Roger and I, who have been injured for such a long time. Of course, we are equal on Major titles, but the chances for Novak are much higher than for us because he's healthy and competing, and he's doing well.
Let's see what can happen in the next couple of months. If I'm back at my best again, we can be talking about that later in the season. My current goal is to make a comeback and be healthy and competitive," Rafael Nadal said.
