Rafael Nadal stole the show on the court throughout the recent U.S. Open, and he also made an unusual amount of noise in his interviews with more than a few comical quips. So, too, did Roger Federer and many others.
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.
Make it two titles at this year's U.S. Open for Martina Hingis. Just about 24 hours after winning in mixed doubles with Jamie Murray, Hingis teamed up with Yung-Jan Chan to triumph in women's doubles on Sunday afternoon with a 6-3, 6-2 rout of Lucie Hradecka and Katerina Siniakova.
Martina Hingis is 36 years old. She will be 37 at the end of this month. But like Venus Williams, the legend keeps growing.
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.
