    I think he will come to his senses, take a break after Miami and come back at Halle
    He can space out the tournaments fine, there's a longer gap between French Open and Wimbledon than before. To be honest, I've thought if he ever does play Roland Garros again, it would be his last year.

    It’s not just the French open though it’s the tournaments that come before it, and to have any chance of making the business end of Roland Garros he would need to be competitive in the lion’s share of them. At most he might win Madrid on the blue clay.
    It’s just not worth it. The French open is a one man procession. I don’t mean that to downplay Nadals achievements because they are IMMENSE but none of the top seeds barring him and Stan consider Clay their best surface or even a surface they like playing on.

    They only had blue clay once, Nadal hated it so that isn't happening again.

    Monte Carlo is in April, Madrid and Rome are back to back but he doesn't need to play both or either of those. Rome makes the most sense generally as it is the closest in conditions to Chatrier.

    I really don't think it's such a hardship that is going to mess with him too much, depends how much he wants to retain #1 for as long as possible, given he'd obviously pick up points even if he goes out in the first round.
