Spaniard Rafael Nadal won the Australian Open and is the record holder of tennis history with the 21st grand slam title. He disengaged from Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer. In the final in Melbourne, he lost 0: 2 to sets with Daniil Medvedev, but in the end he won more than a five-hour battle 2: 6, 6: 7, 6: 4, 6: 4, 7: 5.
Thirty-five-year-old Nadal returned to the courts at the beginning of the year after missing the second half of last season due to a foot injury.
He clearly lost the first set with tournament two Medvedev, who was the highest-ranking player in the spider after Djokovic’s expulsion.
In the second set, he did not take a chance and lost it in a tie-break. But even that did not break the Spanish veteran and in the end he did not allow the Russian opponent to continue the triumph from the US Open.
In the fifth set, Nadal did not deliver the match at 5: 4, but then he took Medvedev’s service again and took the second chance. As he turned the volleyball into a volleyball, his face was moved with an unbelieving smile.
