Nadal avoided his earliest Grand Slam defeat since Wimbledon 2005

By David Ornstein BBC Sport at Wimbledon

World number one Rafael Nadal survived a huge scare against Robin Haase in round two as Wimbledon 2010 threw up yet another thrilling encounter.

The second seed twice had to come from behind before beating his 151st-ranked Dutch opponent 5-7 6-2 3-6 6-0 6-3.

Nadal was broken when serving to stay in the first set and, after rallying in the second, was stunned in the third.

But the Spaniard outclassed Haase from there on in to seal a meeting with Philipp Petzschner or Lukasz Kubot.

It was a battle that enthralled the Centre Court crowd from start to finish and unexpectedly proved the latest instalment in a captivating opening week at the All England Club.

Roger Federer, the defending champion and top seed, needed five sets see off Alejandro Falla, third seed Novak Djokovic went the distance with Olivier Rochus and John Isner overcame Nicolas Mahut in the longest match in tennis history.
