Nadal's debut in Madrid delayed

Rafael Nadal's debut at the Madrid Open has been pushed back a day because of an ear infection. Organisers say Nadal will play his opening match on Wednesday. The four-time champion says the infection "is nothing important'' but is a "little bit painful."

Nadal will play his second-round match against Italy's Fabio Fognini. Nadal had a bye in the first round.
