Tennis world number -one player Rafael Nadal dismissed rumours that he could be spared from the Wimbledon tournament this year due to a knee injury.
"I will give 200 percent in order to be at my 100 percent at the most important event of international tennis. I wont go to any court - and Wimbledon in particular - to see what happens, if I go there I'll give a 100 percent," said Nadal today in his official web page.
