Rafa Nadal will debut at Wimbledon 2022 this Tuesday, June 28, and will do so against Francisco Cerúndolo. The man from Manacor comes to the competition after winning his fourteenth Roland Garros in Paris despite the problems he has had with his foot. "I'm enjoying playing on grass three years later. If I'm here it's because things are going well, if not, I wouldn't be. I'm happy," Nadal told a news conference.
Francisco Cerúndolo has only won one match on grass in his career and it was this year at Queen's and against the Spanish Pedro Martínez. Nadal, for his part, returns to play an official match on grass for the first time since the semifinals he lost to Roger Federer at Wimbledon in 2019.
The match between Rafa Nadal and Francisco Cerúndolo will be played on Tuesday June 28 in the second turn of the central court. The meeting between the Spanish and the Argentine will begin at 3:45 p.m. and can be seen on Movistar. It can also be followed live through the La Vanguardia website.
