Rafael Nadal has set up a rematch with Australian number one Alex de Minaur by winning his first round at the Madrid Masters .Nadal and de Minaur face off for the second time in as many weeks on clay after the Australian won their Barcelona showdown.
In Barcelona eight days ago, de Minaur outplayed the 37-year-old Nadal 7-5, 6-1 on the court named in his honour, and the five-time Madrid winner is just glad to be savouring his return to the Caja Magica — Magic Box — arena one final time before he hangs up his racquet. De Minaur and 32nd seed Jordan Thompson, who both enjoyed first-round byes, will be joined by another Sydneysider in the second round after Max Purcell enjoyed a fine comeback win over American Marcos Giron 4-6, 6-4, 7-6.
