Notable Saturday Matches

No. 3 Rafael Nadal vs. No. 27 Fabio Fognini



It's safe to say that seven-time champion Rafael Nadal hasn't been dominating his competition so far, with both of his first two matches going four sets. But he's pushing along.

Up next won't be an unranked opponent that he can afford to overlook, though. No. 27 Fabio Fognini is a real threat and if Nadal doesn't treat him as such, we could see more struggles from the Spaniard.

Nadal's mind isn't solely on his play, however. He was visibly unhappy with the French Open scheduling on Friday, according to the Associated Press via FOX Sports. 

Perhaps Nadal has a point, considering he's won the event seven out of the last eight years. Winning that much gives you a feeling of entitlement, and the French Open officials can't afford for their prized player to be receiving a disadvantage.

Regardless, if Nadal isn't focused on his upcoming match, his struggles will continue.
