London, June 27 (ANI): Argentinean tennis star Juan Martin Del Potro has said he will have to play 'unbelievable tennis' to beat world number one Rafael Nadal in the fourth round.
"I know to win I will have to play unbelievable tennis. Everything must be perfect and only then do you have a chance. This is the first time I have been in the fourth round of Wimbledon and I want to treasure every moment" Del Potro was quoted as saying by The Daily Express.
Six feet 6 inches tall Argentinean, Del Potro lost the game when he last met Nadal, but this time he is aiming to turn it around.
"Two years ago, it is true I beat him. Early this year he beat me, easily, I don't know if I am still a long way off the level I was. Going to be tough for me," Del Potro said.
Nadal also has no doubts how tough the match will be and claims Del Potro is playing like a man in the world's top five, rather than his seeding of 24.
"I think he has a good serve, very good shots from the baseline, he is a complete player. It is always a big challenge to play against him. He is one of the best players in the world" Nadal said.
"This is a big challenge for a 'lefty' like me. His play is much higher than his ranking suggests and it is not lucky for me to have to play someone so good so soon. When he is fully fit again, then we shall see what a big danger he will become" he added. (ANI)
