2019 BNP Paribas Open R3 Rafael Nadal bt. Diego Schwartzman  6-3 6-1

Next opponent - Filip Krajinovic

"I did a lot of things well. I started the match very well," Nadal said. "My serve worked very well, especially in the first set. But during the second, I was doing things well anyway, so just happy having a match that I suffered in the past against Diego. We know each other well, so it's a positive victory for me." 

[There] arrived a moment that I think I was playing too aggressive. So then I stopped a little bit the game, changing the rhythm of the point more times, and I think that worked well for me," Nadal said.  "[I'm] happy by the way that I played. I did a lot of things well." 

"In Roland Garros he had been up a set and a break. In Australia [it was] a very long four-set match," Nadal said. "Today I played very well, and took my chances. I was solid with my serve, and I did a lot of things well, I think. I don't believe it's something about Diego. It's something about the way that I played today more than anything." (via ATP)
