The Spanish Rafael Nadalwho on Tuesday passed the first round of Wimbledon against the Argentine Francisco Cerundolomade sure what happened was in the pools because he hadn’t played on this surface in three years.
“It’s a tough game, but it’s something I look forward to, because I haven’t played on the grass in three years and he’s played at a high level a long time. He’s had a big backlog. The positive thing is I finished the fight on a good level. It was a very positive fight for me, but there is a lot of room to improve “, explained the Spanish at a press conference.
“I can hardly remember (what the lawn was). Now it was windy, cold, the ball was very heavy, faster, didn’t spend much time on the ropes. It wasn’t easy to play. In two sets. And the break I had it’s under control. Every win helps, I spend a lot of time on the track and I hope it all helps. “
In adapting to the grass, Nadal stressed that moving without limits is the most important thing. “Beyond that, there is room for improvement without a doubt, what happened today was within the pools. I have met an opponent who has played at a very high level. He gave you very little margin with great precision.”
“There are times I’m wrong that I don’t understand which shot I should choose. The games give you that. You have to have humility now to know how to suffer,” he added.
