World number one Rafa Nadal’s participation in the season-ending Tour finals hung in the balance when the Spaniard pulled out of the Paris Masters with injury on Friday.
Nadal told a news conference ahead of his quarter-final match against Serbian Filip Krajinovic that he was suffering from a right knee problem.
The 31-year-old said he would try his best to be present at the eight-man event that takes places from Nov. 12-19 at the O2 in London but his focus was on the long term.
“I have to pull out. Of course it’s a very tough decision for me, especially here in Paris, which has been the most important city in my career without a doubt,” the 10-time French Open champion, who struggled with his knee in Tuesday’s third-round win against Pablo Cuevas, said.
