SYDNEY: Rafael Nadal secured a come-back victory against Australia's Alex De Minaur at the ATP Cup in Sydney on Saturday , propelling Spain into the final of the inaugural event to play the Novak Djokovic-led Serbian team.
The Australian hopped into his backhands, such was his determination to throw himself forward, and launched into the air to hit his punishing forehands, all while refusing to be pushed back by Nadal's wicked topspin. Earlier, Serbia's Dusan Lajovic beat his more highly ranked opponent, Russia's Karen Khachanov, giving Serbia an unassailable 2-0 lead going into the doubles match.
"I had a clear vision of what I wanted to do - and it worked great but then he started figuring it out," said Djokovic.
