It was really a marathon match for Rafael Nadal. But the 34-year-old Spanish tennis player spoke for himself as the undisputed (无可争议的) King of Clay. On April 25, Nadal beat Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-4, 6-7, and 7-5 in the Barcelona Open final. The Greek Stefanos proved a strong rival (对手) as he had not lost a set on his way to the final in Barcelona. The third set (局) was neck and neck throughout, but Nadal eventually saved a match point to win. The match lasted 3 hours and 38 minutes, making it the longest best-of-three set ATP final since statistics started being tracked in 1991, ESPN noted. This victory marks Nadal’s 12th Barcelona Open title, his record-extending 61st clay court title and 87th career singles title, according to the Tennis website.
