Rafael Nadal's surprising statement.
”I'm not going to say that I play with the handbrake. But I evolve in a different way. We are used to seeing me hit my forehand at 200%. My coach told me that you don't really need that much power. This is what I do now. It's a close to 100% forehand, I'm happy with the way I'm playing, my balls are fluid. I still don't fully trust my forearm, I'm still thinking about it. I’m not going to talk about doubts, but this subject always concerns me.”
Just like his next opponent, Jan-Lennard Struff (ATP 24): “His game is uncomfortable: serve-volley and big shots from the baseline.”
