MADRID, Feb 6 (AFP): Rafael Nadal expects to be back playing competitive tennis by the end of the month, the world number one revealed on Monday.

The 31-year-old was forced to pull out of his Australian Open quarter-final against Marin Cilic in the fifth set two weeks ago due to a thigh injury.

"It's a small injury that needs time and rest and recovery, and that's what we're doing," Nadal said at the inauguration of a specialised tennis clinic in Madrid.
