Nadal, the 2009 Australian Open champion is still to drop a set in this year’s tournament. Nadal managed to win the opening set against Tsitsipas in only 31 minutes while dropping three points on his serve.
Tsitsipas made a push back in the second set but Nadal managed to break his serve and from thereon it was the match in Nadal’s favor.
