For all the excitement generated by the arrival of the Spanish No1 at Queen’s Club the other evening, it was the Spanish No13 who sent the Pimm’s-ometer up a couple of levels with the attacking tennis he played on Centre Court against Andy Murray. If anyone had sidled up to Ivan Navarro earlier in the week and tapped him on the shoulder, they would not have wanted an autograph but directions for Rafael Nadal’s practice court, yet the world No108 had Queen’s worried when he was twice a point away from taking the opening set against the defending champion. |
