In the recent past, Nadal’s video surfaced on the internet where he was performing various acts on the treadmill. His moves were quite unique and not everyone’s cup of tea.

Similarly, Djokovic was displaying various tricks on the treadmill. However, he did not have the same conviction as that of the 13-time French Open champion. 

Coming to tennis this season, Nadal competed in the Australian Open but lost in the quarterfinal. After that, he won titles in Barcelona and Rome. Sadly, the Spaniard was unable to repeat the same feat in Paris at the French Open as he lost to Djokovic in the semifinal.

Nadal did not feature in any event until the Citi Open in Washington. After losing out to Lloyd Harris in the third round, he flew back home in order to assess his foot injury as it was not letting him perform to the best of his abilities.

Meanwhile, Djokovic won the first three Grand Slam titles this season. However, he was not able to go the distance and lost in the final major of the season at the US Open, which stopped him from claiming the Calendar Slam this year.

The 34-year-old has had one of the most successful seasons of his life. After delivering successful performances in the first three Majors this year, he ended his hopes by losing the semi’s match against Zverev at the ATP Finals. We wish him all the best for the upcoming 2022 season.
