After defeating The United Kingdom's First Brother In two sets in the at-P500 Acapulco men's singles final to become the "quadruple champion", Spanish god of war Nadal continued to set a series of records. He is the youngest and oldest winner of the Acapulco race, reaching the summit for the fourth time in 2005 at the age of 19 to nearly 36 in 2022, an impressive 17-year span.
With this 15-game winning streak of three titles in the first two months of the season, Nadal also improved his career singles winning percentage from 83.1% to 83.31%, thus surpassing Serbian champion Djokovic (83.21%) and ranking first in history. This week, Nadal's world rankings will also rise one place to fourth in the world, with a 2,100 point difference with The New York World Number One Medvedev.
For this somewhat fantastic experience at the beginning of the 2022 season, Nadal was also very emotional in an interview with his own media. "I'm thankful that life has given me new opportunities, it's really unexpected, I cherish what's happening now, and I'm probably enjoying it more than ever." As originally planned, Nadal's next tournament was the ATP 1000 Indian Wells Masters, where he would launch his 37th career Masters title.

At monterrey in Mexico, Chinese teenager Wang Xinyu drew Chinese American player Ann Lee in the first round; another rookie, Zheng Qinwen, followed the previous stop and drew Russian Karinskaya again.
