MELBOURNE: Rafa Nadal survived a mammoth first-set tiebreaker before going on to beat fellow lefty Adrian Mannarino 7-6, 6-2, 6-2 and reach the quarter-finals of the Australian Open on Sunday , remaining on course for a men's record 21st Grand Slam title.
Mannarino had lost both his previous meetings against Nadal and came into the contest after a demanding third-round victory over Russian Aslan Karatsev in a match that lasted four hours and 39 minutes. "After that match I said he's going to be a potential multi-Grand Slam winner," Nadal said of the 22-year-old."He has a lot of amazing things in his game, and his results say that. When he's playing well, it's very difficult to stop him."
Anyone think he can go all the way, another Grand Slam .... make next few years for Djoko more interesting.
