LONDON — After seven years of struggles, Rafael Nadal is finally looking like a contender again at Wimbledon.
The top-ranked Spaniard is back in the quarterfinals at the All England Club for the first time since 2011 — and playing a lot like the man who reached his fifth final that year.
“It’s true it has been a while,” Nadal said about his return to the last eight. “But when I come here, I come here thinking that I can do a good result, no?”
Clearly, the King of Clay hasn’t forgotten how to play on grass.
