That's my point really, I thought

he was playing fantastic stuff in the first two sets, had loads of break points and on each one (apart from one) he played a dreadful shot. It was like a striker missing chances and I thought he didn't believe he could beat Nadal in his head (even on grass).

Even the best can tense up and lack belief against a man who had recently thrashed him. But he came back really well.

He's not a choker, but I thought he was over-tense in those first two sets. And I still do.
