Resurgent Nadal returns to Queen's Club

LONDON (Reuters) - A resurgent Rafael Nadal will warm up for Wimbledon by returning to The Queen's Club for the Aegon Championships in June. The 14-times grand slam champion missed the entire grasscourt season last year with a wrist injury but after finishing runner-up to Roger Federer at the Australian Open, he hopes a good run in west London will bode well in his pursuit of a third Wimbledon title. "I am very happy to be coming back to Queen's.... It is the best way for me to be ready for Wimbledon,” the Spanish left-hander said in a statement. He lifted the Wimbledon trophy for the first time in 2008 just three weeks after his maiden triumph at Queen’s Club. Nadal’s second Wimbledon title in 2010 also followed a good run at Queen's and he reached the Wimbledon final five times between 2006 and 2011, making the quarters or better at the London warm-up event prior to each one. The Queen’s Club tournament will be held from June 19-25. (Reporting by Pritha Sarkar, editing by John Stonestreet)
