Announcement0 Comments

Nadal beats Lukas Rosol in a game lasting two hours and 44 minutes on Wimbledon Centre Court.  Two years ago, Rosol knocked Nadal out of the tournament in the second round of play. The score: 4-6, 7-6, 6-4, 6-4  Nadal advances to the third round.   Nadal says:

I never play for revenge.  Every match is a different match. Today was another match, I had to win – my goal is not Rosol;  it’s to play as well as I can in the tournament. It doesn’t matter if it’s Rosol or another player who has beaten me in the past.
