Rafael Nadal and Lorenzo Sonego had a lot to talk about after their third-round match at the 2022 Wimbledon as things got heated.
Both players had a different view on what happened and while Lorenzo Sonego claimed that his opponent "distracted" him, Rafael Nadal was apologizing after the match. No one knows except for the Italian if he really got distracted. However, it was obvious that the Spaniard wanted to be fair to his opponent as he also tried to discuss the situation at the net after the match.
"My intention was never to bother him at all. Just to tell one thing that was bothering me that I think he was doing in that moment, but that’s it. I think there is some codes between players. Yeah, we had some issues there. But that’s it."
"I was wrong. Probably, I should not have called him on the net. So, apologize for that. My mistake on that. No problem to recognize that. Then after that, all the stuff during the match that I don’t want to comment, because is something that I spoke with him in the locker room and it stays there. Only thing I can say is I saw him personally. I apologize for that."
