Rafael Nadal says playing nearly all year round is too much.

Tennis star Rafael Nadal says that playing nearly all year round is too much, especially for the top guys. The new Lanvin model limped out of the Paris Masters.

Hey says "With this calendar it's very difficult to play a lot of years in a row.

"The ATP and everybody have to think about these things what's happening in the end of the season. The speed of the ball is increasing and it's tougher for the body. For the last four years I was fine," he said.

"Roger and I try our best in every tournament. But when you can no more, you can't no more. You know how tough is the season and how long, a lot of the matches on our shoulders."
