Former No. 1 Nadal battled a left wrist injury in 2016, dropping him from No. 5 at the beginning of the season to No. 9 to finish out the year. He still added to his total of 69 career titles with his ninth win in Monte Carlo, marking his 28th ATP Masters 1000 title, and his ninth crown in Barcelona. The win in Barcelona marked his 49th career clay court title, tying Vilas for the lead in the open era. He’s the eighth man in history with over 200 Grand Slam singles matches, with his best 2016 Grand Slam finish being the round of 16 at the US Open. Nadal competed for Spain in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Brazil, capturing the second gold medal of his career in doubles with Marc Lopez. He looks to add to his 800+ career wins in Miami. Nadal has reached the Miami final four times (05, 08, 11, 14) and will play for his first Key Biscayne crown in his thirteenth appearance in 2017.
