Mallorca's Rafa Nadal is returning to the court: he will play an exhibition match at the MGM Slam in Las Vegas, United States, on 28 February 2027. The match will take place at the T-Mobile Arena. Nadal announced it in a video on social media on Monday, 26 October 2026.
It will be his second appearance on court since retiring in 2024. Three weeks ago, he played an exhibition match for the 10th anniversary of his Rafa Nadal Academy — his first match since retirement.
Nadal says he has fond memories of playing in Las Vegas in 2024, particularly the atmosphere and the fans. He is looking forward to competing there again.
