Rafael Nadal he could not be more than the favorite in his third round against the dutch Botic Van de Zandschulp. There were eighteen participants against two, initially. And the differences become abysmal counting thirteen Spanish titles, his 107 wins in 110 games played. He has yet to lose this tie, where he will have to retire at some point, without taking the court. Due to wrist injury, in 2016 and by appointment before Marcel Granollers.
The Balearic Islands, world number five and who will be 36 on June 3, however, you will have more business to handle than usual. One is uncontrollable, it is not in their hands. The weather report announced rain in Paris, which would not be a problem at the plant Philippe Chattier, where the organization captures the king of clay once in each edition, and plays in this battle. This can delay your appointment, which if there is no water should start around 3-4 in the afternoon.
The start is the third turn of Runway Suzanne Lenglen, whose playing field is more confined than in the middle. Smaller size and with slower game conditions compared to the main stadium of the Parisian complex.
Suzanne Lenglen’s program

In the 2021 edition he has to go through the preliminary phase, which reaches the second round. He was later planted in the quarterfinals of the US Open, also from ‘qualy’.
He started 2021 ranked 156th in the ATP rankings. He finished the course on the 57th. This is the 29th. At the age of 26, he had matured to a game that brought him to the final in Munich on the clay tour.
Under normal conditions, place in the round of 16 will go to Nadal, who will face the Canadian in that round Felix Auger-Aliassimeadvised by Tony Nadal, who also supported his nephew from the technical box in Paris. The coach should rest for a few days, ask for neutrality. His student, in any case, will not be easy against the Serbian Filip Krajinovic.
