It has been a year and four months since the Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal underwent surgery on his psoas and hip in Barcelona. At that time, he noted that recovery from surgery would define his future as an athlete. In the video that accompanies this news, EL PAÍS journalist Alejandro Ciriza analyzes the reasons that have led the five-time Wimbledon champion to retire from the courts. The final point of his extensive career will be in the Davis Cup, where he will defend the colors of Spain in the quarterfinals, in Malaga, starting on November 19.
