Rafael Nadal wants to begin his comeback in an exhibition event in Abu Dhabi on January 1st 2015.
The Spaniard then plans to play in Doha – defending the title he won last year – before the start of the Australian Open on January 19th.
Nadal, who won the French Open title in June for the ninth time in 10 years, says it’s his goal to be fully fit in time for the Australian Open, as he wants to challenge himself for a 15th Grand Slam title.
Nadal was forced to miss the ATP World Tour Finals in London, as he needed to recover from an earlier surgery to remove his appendix.
The 28-year-old has also battled knee, wrist and back problems, and doctors have confirmed that part of his rehabilitation, also includes stem cell treatments.
