- French Open champion to face Sonego after four-set win
- Nadal: ‘I am staying at home and not going out any more’
Rafael Nadal endured one of those days when his opponent plays the game of their lives, but despite the best efforts of Ricardas Berankis it is the 22-time grand slam winner who is in the third round after a 6-4, 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 victory over the world No 106 from Lithuania, on Centre Court.
Nadal, who says he is living the life of a hermit in SW19 thanks to the Covid outbreak that has claimed a third player from the men’s draw, will now face the Italian Lorenzo Sonego on Saturday.
