Nadal says right knee feels good practice session

Rafael Nadal says his right knee feels good after a 40-minute practice session at the All England Club yesterday.



Toni Nadal, Rafael's uncle and coach, says the knee is so much better than it was a day earlier, when the 2008 Wimbledon champion received treatment from a trainer at changeovers during his five-set comeback victory in the third round against Philipp Petzschner.



Rafael Nadal skipped the tournament last year because of tendinitis in both knees.



After yesterday's day off, Wimbledon resumes today with all 16 men's and women's fourth-round matches. The second-seeded Nadal faces 66th-ranked Paul-Henri Mathieu of France.



Toni Nadal says he and his nephew are nervous about the opponent, but not the knee, at the moment.
