medical tests under the supervision of Doctor Angel Ruiz-Cotorro.

Rafa Nadal: "I have been playing with pain on my knees for some months now
and I simply can’t go on like this. The pain was limiting certain movements
in my body, which affected me mentally as well." "After the tests and with
the appropriate treatment, we have decided to travel to London next Tuesday,
June 16th." "I am going to give my 200% to be ready for the most important
tournament in the world. The tournament that I always dream about. I will not
go out and play, especially on the Wimbledon Centre Court, if I am not 100%
ready to play." "I have 2 difficult weeks ahead of me, especially because I
won’t be doing what I like doing most, which is to play tennis, but I will
be working on my recovery through physiotherapy treatments as well as
recovery work on the specific muscular area."

Doctor Angel Ruiz-Cotorro, Spanish Federation doctor and Managing Director of
the Mapfre Medical Tennis Center: "After the appropriate tests (MRI,
Ultrasound scans and gammagraphy) Mr. Rafael Nadal suffers from insertion
tendonitis in the superior end of both kneecaps with a light osseous edema.

progressive muscular exercises for both quadriceps's. Following the 48-hour
treatment, Mr. Nadal will progressively get back into training progressively.
