After losing his first clay title at Monte Carlo days ago at the hands of Djokovic, Rafael Nadal turns to Barcelona to heal his wounds and his bid for an eight Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell title.
Nadal has won seven out of the last eight editions in Barcelona, missing out only in 2010 when he did not play due to injury.
Nadal opens his title bid against Argentinian Carlos Berlocq, whom he faces for the second time. They met earlier this year in the quarter-finals at Sao Paulo, where Nadal won in three sets.
Nadal, a seven-time champion here, is 35-1 lifetime and he’s won 34 matches in a row since his second round loss to countryman Alex Corretja in 2003.
Nadal, the world number five who stands behind compatriot and three-time losing finalist David Ferrer in the seedings at the Real Club de Tenis, insists his focus is on this tournament and not his preparation for next month's French Open at Roland Garros.
The match today is scheduled for Wednesday, 24 April 2013 13:00 GMT
