Rafael Nadal has cleared injury concerns ahead of the upcoming French Open after the Spanish tennis superstar posted a picture of himself training in full flow with the caption, "See you on Wednesday, Paris."

The 13-time Roland Garros champion had said last week that daily training was a challenge and he would take a doctor with him to Paris after a chronic foot injury flared up during his defeat by Denis Shapovalov at the Italian Open.

Nadal, 35, who only recently returned from a stress fracture in the ribs, struggled toward the end of his match against the Canadian as he went down 1-6 7-5 6-2 in the last-16.

But the world No. 5 looks poised to launch another bid for a Grand Slam title at his favorite hunting ground, having won his 21st major at the Australian Open earlier this year.

That victory followed a difficult 2021 during which he missed Wimbledon, the Tokyo Olympics and the U.S. Open.

Nadal will be attempting to reclaim the title in Paris after he suffered a semifinal defeat last year against Novak Djokovic, only his third career loss at Roland Garros.
