Much better than at the start of the match, Pedro Cachin got back on track on a much quieter Court Manolo Santana (1-6, 7-6 after 2h12 of duel). Taking advantage of a Spaniard losing intensity and consistency (11 unforced errors), the Argentine finally seized his chance (breaking 3 times in the set and serving twice for the set).

Much more aggressive than in the first set, the 91st-ranked player in the world had a scare when it came to closing out the set, but he went on to clinch a decisive third act (with a superb backhand passing winner). Nadal, for his part, will have to put a lot more intensity into his game, particularly in terms of ball length, if he wants to get back on court tomorrow (in the last 16).

Will the king of clay be able to get back to his best and win?

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
