The second set started unbeatable for Rafa. With the marker 30-30, shot a cross shot to the line to go ahead and signed the break seconds later, to the frustration of the British, who crashed the racket on the ground.

Release the rage It did Norrie good. He put pressure on Nadal in the second game, put him on mate point, 15-40 and, although Rafa caused a deuce, he suffered his first break for 1-1.

After two ‘ games’ in which they appeared to be a peace truce, in the fifth game Nadal pressed again, forced his rival to make unforced errors and broke his serve to take a 3-2 lead, which he extended to 4-2 by confirming service break.

Nadal saw Norrie injured and tried to hurt him; a hit from the number 15 of the world hit the net and went to the side, which frustrated him and he was no longer able to amend the ‘game’, which meant the third loss against him in the set.

When he seemed settled, Norrie showed pride, broke and got closer to 5-4 after confirming his service, however in the tenth game Rafa closed with lordship; he kept serve and reached 15 wins at the start of the season, the best of his professional career.

With the result, the Spaniard added his third title in the 2022: the Melbourne tournament, the Australian Open and Acapulco, in which he added his fourth title to catch up with his compatriot David Ferrer and the Austrian Thomas Muster.

Historic, Rafael Nadal 🇪🇸 🙌!
