The much-anticipated first installment of the annual Laver Cup is here, ready to thrill fans inside the Prague, Czech Republic's O2 Arena this weekend from Friday afternoon through Sunday evening.
Nadal triumphed in New York for the third time on Sunday afternoon, lifting the trophy once again following a 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 rout of Kevin Anderson. The world No. 1 did not face a single break point while coasting to victory in two hours and 27 minutes. Nadal used unusually strong and well-placed returns to break Anderson four times and he almost kept up with the 6'8'' South African in the winners department (32 to 30 in Anderson's favor). The Spaniard also committed a mere 11 unforced errors, whereas 40 mistakes came off the underdog's racket.
Rafael Nadal and Kevin Anderson will be facing each other for the fifth time in their careers when they collide in the U.S. Open final on Sunday afternoon.
Rafael Nadal is one win away from a 16th Grand Slam title and third at the U.S. Open. The world No. 1 took another step--and a big one--toward that destination when he defeated Juan Martin Del Potro 4-6, 6-0, 6-3, 6-2 during semifinal action on Friday night.
Having landed in the same half of the U.S. Open draw when it was revealed last week, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer were never that far away from their long-overdue and first-ever head-to-head encounter at this tournament.

With all of Andy Murray's injury issues and all of the points he has to defend from 2016--starting at the French Open and Wimbledon--his fall from the No. 1 ranking in the world had been inevitable for some time now. The question was not "if," but "when."
Almost nine years to the day since he first became No. 1, Spain’s Rafael Nadal today returned to the top of the Emirates ATP Rankings for his fourth stint at the pinnacle of men’s professional tennis.
Rafael Nadal already has one title at the Western & Southern Open. That happens to be the same number as what his ATP ranking will look like next Monday.

There will be no new world No. 1 at the end of the Rogers Cup. Rafael Nadal, who would have regained the top ranking if he had reached the semifinals, lost to Denis Shapovalov 3-6, 6-4, 7-6(4) during third-round action on Thursday night.
Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have been the undisputed standout players of this season and there is no reason to think anything will change in the final months.
Three of the Big 4 survived manic Monday at Wimbledon, although one did not even take the court and must come back out tomorrow.
Abundant sunshine has been the theme of Wimbledon's first week, to the extent that the Centre Court roof has not been closed a single time.
