Rafael Nadal arguably the best player ever to grace the clay courts , is now focused on doing well in this year’s Wimbledon.
"Each training session and each match on grass is very, very important for me. It's such a tough transition. You've got to give it all you've got to get into an ideal shape for the matches," Nadal said on modifying his game for the grass court.
The nine-time French Open champion has not made much of an impact at Wimbledon in the last two years, and is now desperate to get back to form by winning the Gerry Weber Open.
"In 2012, I had physical problems and last year I wasn't at full strength. Now I've got to and I want to show good form and get some self-confidence," said the 28-year-old ahead of his tournament opener against wildcard Dustin Brown in the second round.
"You never know what to expect with him. He plays with a lot of inspiration, very aggressively," said Nadal, who will be facing the German for the first time. Brown defeated Alex Kuznetsov 6-3, 6-4 in the first round.
The second round is scheduled to start at 9 PM, Indian Standard Time on June 12.
