Spain's Rafael Nadal continued his bid for an improbable calendar Grand Slam by fighting off Francisco Cerundolo to win on his return to Wimbledon.

Nadal feared he might have to retire last year because of chronic foot pain but has won Australian Open and French Open titles this year.

The 22-time major champion was also concerned the issue would rule him out of Wimbledon.
