Physically you have to improve in many aspects, but hey, I've held on so I'm fine. I cannot have any concern in terms of playing tomorrow again. That's how the tournament works. I need to find a way to be able to play days in a row and still be competitive. I don't know if I am in that moment yet. Let's see what can happen tomorrow," Rafael Nadal said after his third-round match.
