Nadal to return to tour at Montreal next month

BARCELONA, Spain (AP)—Rafael Nadal plans to be back at practice next week and back on tour next month.
Nadal’s publicist, Benito Perez-Barbadillo, said Tuesday that the six-time Grand Slam title winner is in Barcelona for tests on his sore knees.
Perez-Barbadillo says Nadal is “slowly recovering from his injury.”
He says Nadal will return to practice Monday and will play in the hard-court tournament at Montreal that begins Aug. 10.
Nadal has not played a match since being upset in the fourth round at the French Open in May. He did not defend his Wimbledon title and slipped from No. 1 to No. 2 in the rankings.
