The Latest: Nadal ready to play in Rio Olympics

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The Latest on the Rio Games (all times local to Rio de Janeiro):

6 p.m.

Rafael Nadal is ready to play in the Olympics after being sidelined with a wrist injury for more than two months.

The 14-time major champion hit for two hours with fellow Spaniard David Ferrer on Monday on a practice court at the Olympic Park in Rio de Janeiro.

Nadal hasn't played since pulling out of the French Open on May 27 before his third-round match because of an injured left wrist.

Wearing a sleeveless blue shirt and white cap, Nadal had a white bandage on his left wrist but showed no signs of injury he hit all-out with Ferrer under a hot sun.
