'The thing that matters is how you recover from a set lost.'Īt a set apiece and Schwartzman up 4-3 in the third, this is how Nadal sized things up: 'That was the moment to make it happen.'Īs if wanting something were enough to will it into existence, he won the next nine games, leaving Schwartzman muttering to himself and bouncing his racquet off the clay.
