In his first match in Indian Wells, Rafael Nadal had a small time mix up that could have costed him big time. The world No. 2 was scheduled to face Jared Donaldson at 6 p.m., but thought the match would be at 8 p.m., so he was a little behind.

The Spaniard made it to his match, and was able to share a laugh with his opponent and apologize. "They're not going to start without you," Donaldson said.

Nadal then wasted no time getting off to a quick start and strong finish as he dismissed the American, 6-1, 6-1.

He next faces Diego Schwartzman in the third round on Tuesday and will likely arrive early.
