Rafael Nadal v Round Alexandr Dolgopolov: Queen's 2015 – live!

Hello! After a four-year absence, Rafael Nadal returns to Queen’s. Welcome back, Rafa, you’ve been missed. Although you could say that he needs Queen’s as much as Queen’s needs him. Nadal has exited Wimbledon early in each of the past three years, Lukas Rosol, Steve Darcis and Nick Kyrgios sending him on his way, those three defeats to opponents who would not have had a prayer against him in the past leaving the great Spaniard looking down suspiciously at the grass, unsure of his footing, uncertain of whether he will ever recapture his old glories.
