The Spanish superstar has made a thrilling comeback to the ATP Tour with a searching run into the fourth round of the Madrid Open, and looks hungry for more.

Nadal has toppled No. 10 seed Alex de Minaur on the way to the fourth round, where he will also face a seeded opponent.

Many feared they had seen the last of Nadal at the top of his game following almost a year on the sidelines, but he has defied expectations and made great suggestions the King of Clay is not ready to abdicate the throne.

Nadal will use the Barcelona Open, this current tournament and the Italian Open as warm-up affairs ahead of an inevitably emotional, potentially sensational tilt at the French Open.
