Paris, May 26: It is almost time for the main round of the French Open and one of the favourites for the silverware at Roland Garros, Rafael Nadal looks confident ahead of the major clay court event.
Organises unaffected by Federer's absence
Nadal admitted after the loss that playing back-to-back matches and tournaments for over three months, it was one day when he was not perfect and did not have his best game.
Nadal has welcomed the rest days he has had after his exit from the tournament in Italy and confirmed that he is ready to "play well" at Roland Garros. Despite the defeat against Thiem, the nine-time French Open champion remains the firm favourite to make it 10 titles in 13 appearances.
"I have been spending energy for many days, I went through tense moments and I played every match at a very high level. I have not been spending four days in a row at home for a long time, and so resting can be helpful," Nadal said, as quoted by Tennis World USA.
"No one won four titles before Roland Garros, or at least I never did it. Then things can go well or bad, but I think I am ready to play well at the Roland Garros. I know I have been working well for many months and now it comes the moment to do the last effort," the Spaniard added.
