ATP Masters Series 1000 Monte-Carlo - Men's Quarterfinal
3 Rafael Nadal d Grigor Dimitrov - 62 26 64
It may not have been pretty but Rafa's kept his quest for a 9th title alive.
Rafa just won his 45th straight match at MC and is now 20-1 for 2013.
But this match was very much one that could have gotten away from him.
Post match: I know that when you have these tough matches,
it is decisive to keep fighting. If you keep fighting, you will lose some ones,
but you will have a chance to win a lot of ones, too.
I gave that fight. Finally he had his chance, and I had my one,
and I converted. That's it. I think I played better the last couple of games.
Obviously I'm trying to find better rhythm all the time.
In my opinion, I did it in the end. It was great.
For his Rafanatics it was great.
