Nadal has won again!
In the early morning of this morning Beijing time, the 2022 ATP1000 Indian Wells Masters began a third round of competition, against Spanish star Nadal and British player Evans.
In the end, Nadal beat his opponent 7-5 6-3 to reach the round of 16, and the whole game took 1 hour and 42 minutes, and this game also brought Nadal a series of new records.
First of all, Nadal became the first person in history to win the 400th singles victory in the ATP 1000 Masters with this victory, and it took him nearly 19 years from the first victory of the Monte Carlo Masters in 2003 to the Indian Wells Masters in 2022.
Nadal was followed by Federer's 381 wins, Djokovic's 374 wins, Murray's 219 wins, Agassi's 209 wins and Berdych's 191 wins.
Nadal has won 36 Masters trophies so far, more of course on clay courts.
Last year, the Roma Masters Nadal defeated Djokovic and crowned him for the tenth time at the Rome Masters through a fierce three-set battle.
"My serve was a lot better than the first game, and the forehand was starting to be able to play the winning ball."
"Of course, today's opening performance is not perfect, but the feeling of forehand hitting the ball is indeed improving step by step, and the overall line change is more relaxed. I have one more day to train, and I'm going to face a top formidable opponent. ”
"If I want to keep going in this race, I have to perform better, I want to improve myself further, I know I'm not far from that. Let's see if we can do it. ”
The winning Nadal said this after the game, but Nadal's modesty and hard work can still be seen in the words, and the next round opponent of the Spanish star is the American player Opelka, who has just eliminated Canadian player Shapovalov in three sets, and his status and strength should not be underestimated.
Of course, for Nadal, he only needs to play his strength, and the Spanish star who has reached the round of 16 of this tournament has reached 17 consecutive wins this season, ranking third in history along with Federer and Sampras.
Ahead of Nadal is Djokovic, whose 26-game winning streak in 2020 and 41 streaks created in 2011 have yet to be surpassed.
In addition to playing a triumphant song in Indian Wells, Nadal's current 17 consecutive wins come from Melbourne, the Australian Open and Acapulco, with the Spaniard winning all three tournaments.
So how many games do you think Nadal can keep in a winning streak this season? Is he expected to break Djokovic's record? (Source: House of Tennis Author: Barbie)
