Rafael Nadal sends bold message for Paris 2024

In Nadal's individual debut in Paris, he faced a tougher challenge than expected. Now, he is gearing up for a historic face-off against Djokovic, who has recently made a significant recovery from knee surgery and faced a loss in the Wimbledon final.

The two tennis legends have not faced each other for two years. Their last encounter ended with Nadal's victory, leading him to win his most recent Musketeers' Cup.

This match will be their 60th, with Djokovic currently leading their head-to-head with 30 wins to Nadal's 29. Their rivalry has been one of the most iconic in tennis history, and this Olympic encounter adds another chapter to their storied competition.

Djokovic enters this match after a significant recovery period and a recent loss in the Wimbledon final.

Nadal has been gaining match fitness in Sweden and in doubles with Carlos Alcaraz. However, Nadal has faced some discomfort in his right thigh, which could influence his performance.
