US Open: Rafael Nadal 'feels great' but not ready to contend for title
The last time Rafael Nadal played at the US Open he won the title, but it would be a major shock if the Spaniard repeated the feat over the next fortnight. Nadal, who missed last year’s tournament with a wrist problem, has had a difficult time over the last 15 months and is down to No 8 in the world. He is seeded to meet Novak Djokovic, the favourite and world No 1, in the quarter-finals.
