Why Rafael Nadal will win US Open 2019
World number two Nadal is in top form after another great year. He has only missed out to reach the semifinal in one tournament all year and won his 4th title in the Rogers Cup 2 weeks ago after 6-3, 6-0 in the final against Daniil Medvedev. Here are a look at Why Rafael Nadal will win the US Open 2019.
- Nadal’s form – He crushed world No.5 Daniil Medvedev in the final of Rogers Cup 2 weeks ago
- Slam No.19 – Rafa is at 18 Grand Slam titles only 2 behind career rival Roger Federer on 20
- US Open No. 4 – With a 4th title in US Open he will be only one behind Open era leaders Federer, Sampras & Connors.
- Year-end number one – with the title and 2000 ATP ranking points he will be way ahead of second place Novak Djokovic
- Grand Slam title No.7 outside clay. With a win he will have 5 GS on hard and 2 on grass. The same number as John McEnroe won.
- He won 6-0, 4-6, 6-1 against Djokovic in the Rome final 2019
Nadal has the form and lots of extra motivation. He was in the final of the Australian Open, won his 12th French Open and reached the semis at Wimbledon this year. He has only lost to Djokovic in Australia, Kyrgios in Acapulco, Fognini in Monte Carlo, Thiem in Barcelona, Tsitsipas in Madrid and Federer in Wimbledon all year. He demolished Federer in the French Open semis and won 6-1 in the third against Novak in the Rome final. The 6-0 set against Djokovic in the first set marked the first time either player had bageled the other in their Head2Head rivalry.
