In an intense match against Croatian number 23 in the world Marin Čilić, after more than two and a half hours, Rafa stood up to the audience of Arthur Ashe, the emblematic central court of the Grand Slam of America. He did it with an incredible point outside the network that left him ‘match point’.
His rival responded the service with a great return, then demanded Rafa in the corner and finally put him to travel to the other side of the field with a soft shot virtually unattainable. Not for Nadal, the Spanish took an impossible drive out of the network, seldom seen, that he went to hit the vertex of the Cilic rectangle.
A shout of war from Rafa, and a standing ovation from the stadium, including golfer Tiger Woods, gave the right dimension to an unforgettable point, which preceded the passage of Spanish to the quarterfinals of the US Open. Standing applause
