However, Rafael Nadal received a great welcome at the Madrid Open as he went on to enter the Magic Box for the practice session. Notably, the Spaniard recently landed in the capital, and he received a warm welcome. The legendary player has the most impressive record at the Madrid Open, as he went on to win the first title back in 2005 and the last in 2017, which was his fifth title.

However, Nadal is set to face the greatest challenge this time, as two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz will be looking to win for the third time this year. Meanwhile, Rafael Nadal was recently asked about his favourite tournament, to which he came up with an interesting remark. The 37-year-old player admitted that it is very hard for him to pick any particular tournament as he has many memories of his favourite court and has had a great time there. Fans have loved his answer and praised him for his magnificent reply.

I don't know, it's really hard to say a particular tournament: Rafael Nadal

"I don't know, it's really hard to say a particular tournament. I have many, where I have had a great time but I can't tell you. But, on this tour of Europe, I also had a great time in Latin America. So I don't know, many good memories from many places. I do not know. I think one of my gifts was a trip to Egypt with all my family when all were with the family. My dad, my mom, my four grandparents, well the whole family," Rafael Nadal said.
