"It is the second year in a row and in China I have great fans. "The tournament is amazing and the city one of the most special places around the world. But, as you all probably know, I had an inflammation on my left wrist during the Laver Cup and I haven’t had the time to recover and practice to be ready for this amazing event. I hope to be back in Shanghai for the 2020 tournament." In addition to his wrist issues, Nadal has a major milestone approaching. The 19-time Grand Slam champion is scheduled to wed long-time fiancée Xisca Perelló in the couple's native Mallorca on October 19th.
