Nadal vows to battle on

Rafael Nadal insists he is fit enough to continue the defence of his Wimbledon title despite suffering a leg injury during his third-round win over Gilles Muller.

The top seed took a tumble while winning a first-set tie-break just before the rain came yesterday, but showed no obvious signs of discomfort as he returned to finish the job 7-6 (8/6) 7-6 (7/5) 6-0 on Court One today.
