But earlier this month, the tournament director of the Monte Carlo Masters David Massey confirmed that the Spaniard has signed up to compete in the tournament.
However, the 22-time Grand Slam champion poured cold water over the claims that he would return to action in Monte Carlo. “I don’t know who gets this information. Obviously, if it were true, I would confirm it, but unfortunately, I can’t,” Nadal was quoted as saying by Spain’s national sports daily, Marca.
