Rafael Nadal touched down in the US and the Spaniard is already practising at the Western & Southern Open facilities.

Nadal skipped over Montreal after experiencing some physical issues and fans became worried that the Spaniard hadn't fully recovered from his abdominal tear. A few days after that Nadal confirmed he would be playing in Cinncinati making a lot of his fans happy.

The event is an important one for Nadal as it will be his only prep for the US Open and the first one he will play since Wimbledon. It's also an event where he could theoretically secure the number one ranking again which would be incredible considering where he started this year.

Nadal is already in the city and he's already practising with former player Marc Lopez who is a part of his team. The Spaniard looked really good in practice and he served as well which was something he wasn't doing last week. Check out the Spaniard in action below.
