The poster for the Rafa Nadal Open by Sotheby’s International Realty will feature one of the most illustrious faces on the circuit. This is the former world No. 1 Andy Murray , who has received an invitation from the organization to compete in the Challenger hosted by the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar , from next Monday, August 26 to Sunday, September 1.
It will not be the first time that the champion of three Grand Slam tournaments steps foot in the Manacor facilities. And in July 2016, the year of its inauguration, Murray already had the opportunity to play on the Mallorcan courts to prepare for the American tour, after winning his second Wimbledon crown.
The Briton underwent hip surgery last January after the Australian Open , playing six tournaments since his return in June. Of course, in singles he spent 210 days without competing until he did so again last week at the ATP Masters 1000 in Cincinnati with a loss to Richard Gasquet 4-6, 4-6.
In the doubles category he won the title in his first tournament since Melbourne with Feliciano López on the Queen’s grass in London. He also participated in Wimbledon (second round), Washington (quarterfinals), Montreal (second round) and Cincinnati (quarterfinals). In total there are 15 games played to resume the rhythm of the competition.
Murray’s participation in the Rafa Nadal Open by Sotheby’s International Realty marks his return to the ATP Challenger Tour . The British last played a tournament of this category in Mons (Belgium) 2005 and his record includes two trophies in Aptos (California, United States) and Binghamton (New York, United States), both in 2005. In total, he registers a win-loss record of 22-12 on this circuit. Manacor awaits his 35th match.
