Nadal’s downfall started after he spent four hours battling against Carlos Moya in the semi final. The Spaniard was even forced to call for medical attention due to physical ware out and a slight injury he received on Saturday where he was involved in the longest three set match in the ATP Tour in fifteen years. Although the 21 year old did not win the match he feels he off to a good a start this year and that this competition was of good practice for him and strongly agrees that Mikhail indeed deserved to win. Nadal is now on his way to Melbourne where he will practice hard for about a week and then be on his way to the Australian Open where he hopes to win. Now for what goes of the world’s number 19 he did in fact play incredible tennis and closed out the match only fifty eight minutes of being on court with his tough but tired opponent. This is Youzhny’s fourth title through out his career and admitted that his win was due to Nadal’s physical state and saw it as a gift from him. However, he thought the task would be much harder than it actually it was. Youzhny was sure that Rafael would make a strong come back during the second set but he didn’t and Mikhail took advantage and slammed him in the fourth game trying his hardest to stay focused and not make mistakes. So far Mikhail has been managed to defeat Nadal in four of their seven encounters played on hard courts. As you can see he is very happy with the outcome of the tournament and know he has improved. He will now keep practicing for the upcoming Australian Open as well.
