Nadal is human too
That’s the headline in the Spanish sports newspaper Marca tonight after Rafa Nadal’s defeat by Juan Martín del Potro in the quarter-finals at Key Biscayne.
Nadal hadn’t quite looked at his best this week so perhaps the result was not such a shock. But could this be a sign that the world number one is vulnerable? Maybe, but I wouldn’t read too much into it … not with the clay court season fast approaching.
