French Open finalist Rafael Nadal has pulled out of next week’s Wimbledon warm-up event at Halle in Germany, citing fatigue after a busy few weeks of tennis.
The
Spaniard will try to win his eighth crown on the Roland Garros clay
courts in Paris on Sunday against compatriot David Ferrer.
“It is a pity and unfortunate Rafael cannot come,” said Halle tournament director Ralf Weber in a statement.
“But I understand his decision…his health is the top priority.”
World number four, Nadal has recently won titles in Barcelona, Madrid and Rome, hitting top form on his favourite clay, ahead of the French Open, after coming back in February from a lengthy injury absence.
