Nadal withdraws from the Laver Cup: "I won't be able to take part".
While Rafael Nadal was expected to return to competition at the Laver Cup, scheduled for September 20-22, we've just learned that the Majorcan has finally taken the decision to withdraw from the event.
Visibly disappointed, Nadal explained: "I'm really disappointed to announce that I won't be able to take part in the Laver Cup in Berlin next week.
It's a team competition, and to really support Team Europe, I have to do what's best for them.
At the moment, there are other players who can help the team to victory.
I have so many great, emotional memories of playing in the Laver Cup, and I was really looking forward to joining my team-mates and Bjorn for his final year as captain.
I wish Team Europe all the best and will be supporting them from afar."
