LIVE – Davis Cup: Nadal in the tough against Van de Zandschulp

For the last tournament of his long career, the living legend Rafael Nadal should play the first singles of the quarter-final against the Dutch Botic van de Zandschulp (29 years old, 80^e global). The king of Roland6Garros leads 2 to 0 in his confrontations with the Batavian. He won each time, without conceding a single set, in the third round of Roland-Garros (6-3, 6-2, 6-4) then during the round of 16 at Wimbledon straight away (6-4 , 6-2, 7-6 [6]). Back down to 154^e place in the ATP rankings, the king of Roland-Garros has not played in official competition again since his defeat against Novak Djokovic in the second round of the Olympic Games (6-1, 6-4), on July 29 in Paris.
