The Spaniard suffered his second ATP Finals loss on Tuesday
Rafael Nadal has been all but eliminated from contention at the ATP Finals in Turin, Italy after the Spaniard was beaten for the second time in a matter of days, this time in straight sets to Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Nadal, who also lost to Taylor Fritz on Sunday, was beaten in two sets (6-3, 6-4) by Auger-Aliassime, and now needs to defeat Casper Ruud in straight sets in his final group match and hope that the other results swing in his favor if he is to progress in the tournament, in which eight of the world’s top players are competing against one another.
Nadal, a 22-time grand slam champion, has now lost four ATP Tour matches in succession for the first time since 2009. He started off as the stronger of the two players and looked set to break the Canadian’s serve on several occasions early in the match.
A win to remember!
