#1 Rafael Nadal vs Dominic Thiem (US Open quarter-final)
Top-seed Rafael Nadal was up against 9th seed and French Open final opponent Austrian Dominic Thiem.
Trending
Nadal had probably the worst possible start getting bageled 6-0 in the first set. Despite losing the first set, few would have doubted the Spanish Matador's abilities to pull off a comeback. This is exactly what Nadal did as he grabbed the lone break of the second set to level the match at 1 set apiece.
Barring the first set, all the other sets were tight affairs with very little to separate the two men. Despite Thiem winning 171 points to Nadal's 166 points, it was the Spaniard who had the last laugh just as he did in the French Open final earlier. The fifth-set tiebreak was so evenly matched that the match could have gone either way. An overhead shot by Thiem that sailed long proved costly as Thiem suffered another devastating loss at the hands of the Spaniard.
