Nadal's sleep schedule has been impacted by him becoming a father and it's left him more tired then before.

Rafael Nadal Jr., the first child Nadal has welcomed as a father, has been keeping him up at night more than normal. Nadal spoke about being a parent during the press conference in Buenos Aires. He will be away from the family for a long due to his tennis tour in South America.

"More tired, sleeping less. It's one more concern in your life," said Nadal in Argentina. He added:
