CRI听力:Spaniards Start Strongly at Tennis Masters Cup
Spaniards Rafael Nadal and David Ferrer both notched up winning starts in their group matches in the Tennis Masters Cup in Shanghai.
The sixth seed David Ferrer was not seriously tested by an error-prone Serb Novak Djokovic, winning 6-4, 6-4.
David Ferrer said he was in great physical shape and was playing with confidence, while his opponent, world number three Djokovic, was probably a bit nervous and thus lost the game.
World number two Rafael Nadal followed a different path, overcoming a sluggish start to beat Frenchman Richard Gasquet in three sets, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.
Gasquet overwhelmed Nadal in the first set but failed to keep his consistency, losing in just over two hours.
Nadal said he started the match with doubts because he felt a little bit nervous at the beginning as every match was against the best player. He later played a little bit more aggressive and then grasped the turning point in the second set.
