Doha atp

Doha ATP: 22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal has cast doubt on his place at the ATP 250 tournament in Doha which runs between February 19 and 24. The Spaniard looks set to make a "last-minute" decision on his participation in the tournament but is fully expecting to compete at Indian Wells next month.

However, the 22-time Grand Slam champion remains hopeful of competing at the ATP 1000 Indian Wells hard-court tournament, which takes place between March 3 and 17.

"I have had some discomfort in recent weeks and I am a little bit on the limit,” Nadal said to Spanish media, Relevo. "At this point, every blow I take, every injury, is a setback, not only in tennis and physically but also mentally.
