Rafael Nadal has won just one of his last seven matches. And there's a problem that 'has not resolved'. 9WWOS UnitedCup
A graphic shown on Nine's coverage during the second set showed the difference in first serve contact points at the United Cup compared to Nadal's victorious Australian Open campaign from last year.
"I just don't know if he can use the abdominal to reach back up there. He's also hitting it at a lower contact hit point, not as high, that makes it harder to be accurate. Alex de Minaur consoles Rafael Nadal after beating the Spaniard during a United Cup tie between Australia and Spain "It's really taking out the kick serve, the top spin on the second serve, because you've got to get up the back of the ball, and to do that you need to arch your back," he said.
