Rafael Nadal, of Spain, reacts after scoring a point against Daniil Medvedev, of Russia, during the men's singles final of the U.S. Open tennis championships Sunday, Sept. 8, 2019, in New York. NEW YORK -- The 19th Grand Slam title that seemed so inevitable for Rafael Nadal during the first two-plus sets of the U.S. Open final suddenly seemed in doubt as Daniil Medvedev forced it to a fifth.
Nadal is now within one major trophy of Roger Federer's record for Grand Slam titles won by a man. But this one did not come easily. Not at all. The way this back-and-forth tale was spun, though, it probably was inevitable that Medvedev would break there. And so he did, because Nadal double-faulted on break point after he was docked a serve for his third time violation of the evening.
Two points later, it was over, and Nadal was splayed on his back on the court, the victor at Flushing Meadows for the fourth time. Nadal says he wants to finish his career at No. 1 in the Grand Slam standings -- ahead of Federer and Novak Djokovic, looming in third place currently with 16 -- but also insists he won't base his happiness on how it all shakes out in the end.
