- Spaniard targeting Laver Cup in September
- The 38-year-old is a four-time US Open winner
Rafael Nadal has confirmed he will miss this month’s US Open and play next at the Laver Cup in September. The 22-time grand slam champion hinted after his Olympics exit that he would skip the final major of the year at Flushing Meadows.
Nadal has won the US Open on four occasions but competed there only once since his 2019 triumph after a number of injury struggles in recent years, which has sparked continuous debate over when he will retire.
