Rafael Nadal fans are anxiously anticipating his first triumph of the year. He enjoyed a fantastic winning run last year, especially in Grand Slams, but this season, injuries have hampered his progress. As he is currently placed outside of the top 10, the Spaniard may find it difficult to defend his title, even if he recovers in time, at the upcoming French Open.
However, according to John McEnroe’s brother, Patrick McEnroe, being one of the all-time greats with 22 Grand Slam titles, Nadal should be granted preferential ranking treatment.

The 56-year-old tennis player believes that the main focus of the Spaniard will be on recovering from his injury. He further emphasized that he wants him to be given preferential ranking treatment so that he can find his way back to the sport.
The American doubles legend said, “He’s dropped down to like 15 in the rankings. That will be another interesting thing. The French Federation who makes the draws and the seedings, they’ve always gone by the rules, the rankings. When Rafa faced Djoker in the quarters, I didn’t like that but they’re not going to change.”
