Rafael Nadal Interview at the Eurosport studio after his victory at USO 2017

Alex asked Rafa when he was deciding his return positions during his matches. Rafa: "I think a little bit about it before the match, then during the match I try to realize what I need at every moment. To be honest, I saw the match of [Kevin &] Pablo. Pablo was returning close to the BL and he (Anderson) was finding the zones easily and serving with the power he serves, I think he has a better target. I thought that if I went 5m behind the BL, the target wouldn't be as easy and though maybe at the beginning it'd be difficult for me, throughout the match I'd be able to put more balls on court and try to tire him a little more, which I think is more or less what's happened. Then, some times at the end of the 1st set, I've moved forward as to let him know that I can also return from a closer position, that I won't be behind the BL all the time. In this way, I've changed a little his point of view, not because it was good for me but for his discomfort, to change something and make him think a little bit." Translated by Genny SS
