2017 Wimbledon R3 Rafael Nadal bt. Karen Khachanov  6/1 6/4 7/6(3)

Next opponent - Gilles Muller

"For a set and a half I was playing fantastic, then a little bit worse," said Nadal. "But in general terms, it went very well and I'm very happy. At the beginning of the third set, I had my chances. I should have got the break. It didn't happen. Then, I had two tough games on my serve. That's it. I think I played well in the important moments. In the tie-break, I think I played a little bit better than him.  
"It is always better when the sun is out there. The conditions become a little bit more drier, and the court is more firm. It's better obviously for me. It's always good to be in the second week. I hope the weather continues like this."
