Nadal's hesitation: "Don't know if I'll play"

· updated

Tennis star Rafael Nadal entered the doubles tournament at the Olympics on Saturday evening.

Together with his Spanish compatriot Carlos Alcaraz, they won directly (7–6, 6–4) against the Argentinians Andrés Molteni and Máximo González.

But whether he will play in the singles tournament, which he would enter on Sunday, is still uncertain.

I don't know if I'll play tomorrow, he says and continues:

I'll talk to my people and make the smartest decision I can to have the best chance of taking home a medal.

If Rafael Nadal plays and wins his opening match against the Hungarian Marton Fucsovics, he will face the Serb Novak Djokovic in a thrilling match on the clay in Paris in the second round.
