The 2023 season has been nothing short of a nightmare for Rafael Nadal. He hasn’t been able to compete since an early Australian Open exit. At the same time, bowed out of the top 10 for the first time since breaking into it and also lost the slam race lead that he had over Novak Djokovic. Amidst all the chaos, the Spaniard has managed to find solace in his vacations as he continues to recover from surgeries.

The 22-time major champion might be unfit to step on the court right now, but that does not stop him from traveling. He has already given glimpses of his Greece trip to the fans and now he comes up with a ‘part II’. His recent post ended up receiving plenty of love from the fans.
