Following a\nwell-deserved victory against Italian Matteo Berrettini, Rafael Nadal\nis heading into the finals of the US Open 2019 against Russian Daniil\nMedvedev.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rafael Nadal Overcome\nBerrettini<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rafael Nadal <\/strong>has\nmanaged to overcome Matteo Berrettini<\/strong> at the US Open\nsemi-final, guaranteeing himself a spot at the finals. While Nadal\nwas given a fair chance of winning, Berrettini has been long primed\nas a raising start. Yet, Nadal managed to take him down with a 4-0\nsoaring to victory on Friday<\/strong>, September<\/strong> 6<\/strong>. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nadal had a tough first\nset, trailing after Berrettini time and again, but once that was\npast, he didn’t let his opponent to come even close to a tiebreaker.\n‘I was a little bit lucky, no?’<\/em> Nadal said to media\nrepresentatives later on. His victory against Berrettini has bought\nhim a chance to play the world’s No. 5 Daniil Medvedev<\/strong> from\nRussia. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Medvedev is cited as one of the top names in the world of tennis. Only 23 years old, Medvedev has been fast-progressing towards one title after another. Playing against Grigor Dimitrov<\/strong>, the Bulgarian who had eliminated Roger Federer<\/a>, Medvedev nearly collapse on the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet, his defensive\nstyle allowed him to wear Dimitrov down and eventually won\nconvincingly across the sets. Commenting on that match, Medvedev set\nthat he had been lucky to win against Dimitrov in the first set. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Berrettini: Formidable,\nBut Not Experienced \n<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Back to the game with\nBerrettini, the young Italian is definitely a name that will be\nclimbing the rank list moving forward. His height, though, also puts\nhim at a slight disadvantage compared to opponents. With his 1.95\nmetres<\/strong> and 90 kilograms<\/strong>, the athlete is definitely one of\nthe tallest players out there. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet, he has an\nexceptional backhand as well as a great stopping power that allows\nthem to play through even the hardest opponents. However, that wasn’t\nenough to help Berrettini withstand Nadal’s calculated play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the first set\nbetween the pair when Nadal faltered and nearly gave up on set, the\ngame went in the way of the Spaniard. Nadal had won the set and the\nfollowing contests were convincingly won by him for a total of 7-6\n(5), 6-4, 6-3. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier during the tournament Novak Djokovic had to walk away on a game against Stan Wawrinka<\/a>, as the Serbian had been complaining from a shoulder pain. Similarly, Nadal had faced pains and perhaps one of the reasons why he dominated on clay is that his body doesn’t have to bear the burden of years of competitive tennis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The final is now decided and Rafael Nadal will face Daniil Medvedev<\/a> will meet in the U.S. Open 2019 finals. Medvedev is still the world’s fifth player and interestingly has five titles under his belt. The match will be played on September 8 at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Following a well-deserved victory against Italian Matteo Berrettini, Rafael Nadal is heading into the finals of the US Open 2019 against Russian Daniil Medvedev.
