Nadal’s Journey in Madrid Open So Far

Nadal started his campaign in the Madrid Open with a comfortable win over his compatriot Carlos Alcaraz in straight sets. The second round saw him face Alexei Popyrin of Australia, who put up a brave fight but ultimately lost to Nadal.

In the third round, Nadal faced Britain’s Cameron Norrie. It was a tough match for Nadal as Norrie gave him a run for his money. However, Nadal managed to come out on top in three sets to advance to the quarter-finals.

What’s Next for Nadal?

Nadal will now face Alexander Zverev of Germany in the quarter-finals. Zverev has been in good form lately and will pose a tough challenge for Nadal. However, Nadal is known for his clay-court prowess and will be looking to advance to the semi-finals with a win over Zverev.

If he manages to get past Zverev, he could potentially face another German player – either Jan-Lennard Struff or Dominic Koepfer – in the semi-finals. The other half of the draw features some big names like Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas, and Matteo Berrettini.
