Rafael Nadal’s magnificent unbeaten run in Grand Slam in 2022 has come to an end as America’s Frances Tiafoe knocked the Spaniard out of US Open 2022 in a four-set thriller in their round-of-16-clash on Arthur Ashe Stadium on Tuesday. Nadal was 22-0 in Slams in the calendar year, winning the Australian Open and French Open title. Tiafoe hence became the first man to beat Nadal in a major since Novak Djokovic in Roland Garros 2021, hence ending his bid for an unprecedented 23rd Grand Slam and record-equalling fifth title at the Flushing Meadows.
With the 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, Tiafoe became the third American to beat Nadal at a Grand Slam after Andy Roddick in 2004 and James Blake in 2005. He also became the youngest from his country to enter the quarterfinals at the US Open since Roddick 18 years back.
