 The injury-plagued Spaniard, who has only recently returned from
a wrist problem, is on antibiotics and hoping to delay surgery for
appendicitis until the end of the season.
However, with the eight-man London showpiece looming, the world
number three said he was not certain he will be there.
"I have had weeks of injury so it was not an easy season for me at
the end, I have to do the surgery but I have to find the right
moment," the 14-times grand slam champion told Sky Sports.
"I need to see how things go and how my body accepts the
antibiotics, so after all the things that have happened over the
last few weeks - let's see.
"I will try to do my best (to be in London) but I cannot say, I do
not know a hundred percent."
Nadal, along with Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Stanislas
Wawrinka, has already qualified for the tournament with U.S. Open
champion Marin Cilic also virtually guaranteed a debut appearance.
