French Open 2022: Rafael Nadal defeats local hero Corentin Moutet – no sign of injury worries

For Nadal it was the 300th victory in a Grand Slam tournament. “The last few months have not been easy for me,” said Nadal: “The victories help me a lot.”

The Spaniard is plagued by a chronic foot disease. The so-called Müller-Weiss syndrome has already cost him the entire second half of the 2021 season.

Nadal also had problems with his injured foot at the ATP Masters in Rome in early May, but against Moutet, who repeatedly tested the 35-year-old with stops, the record Grand Slam winner seemed to be able to move without restrictions.
