The date for Rafael Nadal’s appendix surgery could be drawing near after the Spaniard withdrew on Friday from next week’s Paris Masters.
Nadal, the world number three behind Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer,
has been playing in spite of a medical condition which first began several weeks ago in China.
The condition had resulted in doctors putting the nine-time Roland Garros winner on a course of antibiotics which ended last week.
Nadal was due to play a quarter-final match at the Swiss Indoors in Basel later on Friday against Croatian teenager Borna Coric.
Nadal is back in Basel for the first time in a decade and has been playing in spite of not feeling 100 per cent.
The official reason given for Nadal’s pullout from Paris was “personal reasons”, and his place in the draw will be taken by Spain’s Pablo Andujar.
