Rafael Nadal confirmed on Thursday he will miss Wimbledon to focus on the Paris Olympics, which will be played on the clay courts at Roland Garros.
The announcement came a day after Spanish tennis chiefs said the 14-time French Open champion would team up with Carlos Alcaraz at the Games in the French capital, which start late next month.
Nadal, 38, lost in the first round at Roland Garros last month and indicated he was likely to skip Wimbledon, which is played on grass. He won the title at Wimbledon in 2008 and 2010.
