Tennis: Rafael Nadal press conference highlights
Paris, May 27, 2016 (AFP) -Best quotes from Rafael Nadal's Friday press conference where he pulled out of the tournament with a left wrist injury:
On the treatment
"Every day was a little bit worse. We tried to do all the treatments possible. Every single day we spent a lot of hours here working so hard to try to play. Yesterday I played with an injection on the wrist with anesthetic, just to sleep my wrist, to play."
On the prognosis
"The results are not positive.
It's not broken, but if I keep playing it's gonna be broken in the next couple of days. Every day the (MRI) image is a little bit worse."
"To win the tournament I need five more matches, and the doctor says that's 100% impossible."
On Wimbledon
"We're gonna work hard to be ready for Wimbledon. For the moment I need a couple of weeks with the immobilization. Then we're gonna do the treatment, and we hope the treatment works well. We expect to recover quick, to be ready for Wimbledon."
On long term future
"Now it is a tough moment, but it is not the end. I feel myself with the right motivation and the right energy to be back in Roland Garros the next couple of years."
