WHEN DID BLAKE DEFEAT NADAL IN A MATCH THIS YEAR

Question

I know I read somewhere that Blake defeated Nadal in a match earlier this year--only i can't remember which match and when it was.

Answer 1

Blake has to really keep focus and not slump. He lets his confidence go sometimes and that's what can lose it for him.  

Don't worry, Nadal has a cake walk yet again at this tournament. It would be nice to see some tougher challengers.  People can't lose their confidence against him. They HAVE to fight.  

Answer 2

they played 2 matches this year and nadal won both, james won 3 times in the past, in 2006 and 2005

here's the head to head:

Answer 3

He didn't.

Nadal beat Blake twice this year in the Indian Wells QF 7-5 3-6 6-3

And he beat him again a week later in Miami 3-6 6-3 6-1.

Blake however does have a winning record against Rafa after he beat him once in 2005, and twice in 2006.

But Blake has not beat Rafa at all this year.
