Strange match for Rafael Nadal.
In the Beijing 1st round, the Spanish Legend was leading 6-4 1-0 against world no.230 Di Wu to find himself 2-4 in the second set. Then Rafa bounced back to win 6-4 6-4.
Nadal: I played too much far from the baseline
Rafa commented “(It) looked like the match was under control with 6-4, 1-0, but then the situation changed.
I think I played little bit too much far away from the baseline. But is true the last three games of the match I was playing better. I hit some good forehands down the line and that’s why I finished the match well and with the victory.”

Next vs. Pospisil
Rafa will play Vasek Pospisil in the next match. This is the first time they play each other, but an upset is possible. Still… Rafa in 3 set?
