The match begins, Nadal for the round of 16 at Wimbledon!
We will have to be very attentive to Rafa Nadal’s physical, mental and tennis state, who in the previous round against Berankis left some worrying games
Reviewing his last performances at Wimbledon, we see how the Balearic tennis player has lost in the semifinals in his two previous participations, against Djokovic (5 sets) and Federer (4 sets) respectively. Also, since 2003 he has not fallen in the third round, in the year of his debut, where he lost against Paradorn Srichaphan, former world number 9.
The Italian has an 18-12 record on grass after his two previous victories. The first, against Kudla, lasted almost 4 hours and was a match that lasted up to 5 sets. It was not like that against a Gastón that lasted three sleeves.
In Stuttgart, his first tournament on grass this year, the Italian tennis player reached the quarterfinals.
After winning Wimbledon in 2008 and 2010, the Balearic tennis player faces this new edition with recovered sensations after winning at Roland Garros, having practically overcome his physical discomfort and with a role of favorite in this tournament. Nadal knows that if he wants to win the prestigious Wimbledon again, the tournament par excellence on grass, he has before him his best chance this year.
The Spanish Paula Badosa takes the victory in the tie-break and manages to advance to the fourth round of Wimbledon. As we have said, Nadal vs. Sonego will be played on this same court, which will now have to be emptied after the end of this match.
Neither of the two tennis players give in with their serve, we continue with Paula’s mini-break.
Mini-break for Badosa, who manages to win one of the two points on serve to the Czech.
We go to the tie-break in this second set. If Paula manages to win it, she will face Halep in 1/8 and Nadal vs. Sonego will start in about half an hour. If the Czech takes it, we will have a third set.
At the moment, there are no previous clashes between the two tennis players. In addition, it will not be an easy match for Nadal on grass, a surface that he controls the least, and it is expected to be a hard match for the Balearic tennis player.
In two of his last three previous eliminations at Wimbledon, he has had a Spanish tennis player as his executioner (Marcel Granollers in 2019) or a member of the
Big Three (Roger Federer in 2021). Also, his record against the TOP-5 of the world ranking is 2-5.

The start of the match between Nadal and Sonego is delayed until 6:35 p.m., at least for now. The reason is that Paula Badosa vs. Petra Kvitova is being played on the same court right now, a match that goes for the first set.
The Italian has an 18-12 record on grass after his two previous victories. The first, against Kudla, lasted almost 4 hours and was a match that lasted up to 5 sets. It was not like that against a Gastón that lasted three sleeves.
In Stuttgart, his first tournament on grass this year, the Italian tennis player reached the quarterfinals.
Reviewing the numbers of the Spanish tennis player in his two previous meetings at Wimbledon, we see how he has played a total of eight sets, he has had a total of 30 break points for and another 23 against.
He almost missed Wimbledon due to his chronic injury to his left foot, as we have said before, but if he wants to win this tournament again, he has a golden opportunity before him after the withdrawal of great potential rivals such as Marin Cilic, Felix Auger-Aliassime and Matteo Berrettini.
We return to the game of the day. It will not be an easy match, as we say, for a Nadal who hopes to continue winning to get his third Wimbledon. The player with the most Grand Slams in history has before him a brilliant opportunity to achieve it, after many rivals have withdrawn from the tournament.
After sweating more than he thought against Struff in the first round, in a match that went to five sets, he comfortably outpointed Griekspoor in three sets. And yesterday, another recital against an Otte who did not give a feeling of superiority at any time during the match.
Let us remember that Alcaraz and Nadal could only see each other in the Wimbledon final, in case both tennis players won their respective matches.
The Spanish tennis player beat Otte in the third round in three sets and consolidated his course at 1/8 where he will face Sinner. The Murcian, who has gone from less to more, begins to take a liking to the grass and already has two consecutive victories without giving up a set to his rival.
The rival in 1/8 of the winner between Nadal and Sonego will come out of this match that is being played right now. At the moment, the Dutchman Van de Zandschulp prevails 2-1 in sets.
In less than an hour the meeting between both tennis players will begin. Will Nadal prevail and advance to the next round? Will Sonego surprise the number 4 in the world?
At the moment, there are no previous clashes between the two tennis players. In addition, it will not be an easy match for Nadal on grass, a surface that he controls the least, and it is expected to be a hard match for the Balearic tennis player.
