Not before 2:30 will Rafa Nadal jump onto the court to face Fabio Fognini for a hole in the third round on the New York cement. The Spaniard faces this match after a more complicated start than it seemed against Hijikata. The Australian surprised and scratched the first set. The good thing about that match was that you could see a Nadal in good shape, displaying a more than convincing version of his tennis. If he won today, the Spaniard would reach the third round of the US Open for the fourteenth time in this Grand Slam. For this he will have to overcome Fabio Fognini. The duels between the Italian and the Spanish are always very spicy, and the day is surely no exception. They have met 17 times, with 13 wins for Nadal. The last time they met was in the second round of the 2021 Australian Open, with the Spanish victory in three sets. For the Italian’s last victory, you have to go back to the semifinals of the 2019 Monte Carlo Masters 1000. In the previous round, Fognini came back two sets against Aslan Karatsev. It’s going to be a very long night and we’ll spend it here, at MARCA.com, enjoying the best tennis. Not before 2:30, a Nadal – Fognini is coming.
