Nadal – Tomic is definitely the most interesting match of the first round.
Bernard always plays at his best at home and this year he has reached a back to back final in Sydney (OK.. then he was outplayed by Del Potro).
Tomic thinks he has a shot at beating Nadal.
Tomic: He is going to be intimidating…
“I have to stay patient and not lose my head too early, not go for broke and think you have to go for everything, because you really don’t. He’s going to be very intimidating to play.
… but he is still human
You just have to stay with him. I mean, he is human. He does mistake, obviously not as much as the other players, but I’ve got to play very, very good tennis to have any chance. . . I have to play the right tennis to have any chance of winning… I have to be on my game, really embrace the moment, have fun, go for my shots.”
