French Open winner Rafael Nadal plays down his chances of having a successful tournament at Wimbledon.

Rafael Nadal has insisted that he will not be disappointed if he fails to have a successful campaign at Wimbledon.

The Spaniard, who won his eighth French Open title on Sunday, has pulled out of a grass-court tournament in Halle on medical advice ahead of Wimbledon.

"I will check everything after here, I will check all my body and I really hope to be ready for Wimbledon," ESPN quotes Nadal as saying.

"I won't play a tournament before Wimbledon, so that's not the ideal situation before a grand slam like Wimbledon that is on grass and the conditions are very different.

"Because I'm in a good position, even if I don't play a good Wimbledon. That doesn't mean I am not going to try, because I am going to try 100% to be ready for there and to play good tennis there."

Meanwhile, Andy Murray could be fit for the major tournament as he prepares to compete at Queen's Club this weekend.
