Nadal digs deep to win the US Open


It seemed that Rafael Nadal was cruising to victory in the 2019 US Open final against Daniil Medvedev, but the Russian came back from two sets down to force a fifth set and that's when the world number two eventually got the job done.

Nadal won the match in New York 7-5, 6-3, 5-7, 4-6, 6-4, a contest that lasted four hours and 48 minutes.

It was an incredible match, with Medvedev doing a brilliant job to stay in it after Nadal won a tight first set and a more comfortable second set.

The Spaniard even led 3-1 in the third, but Medvedev was able to keep firing and he embarked on a run that took Nadal some time to stop.

Nadal broke his opponent in a 28-shot rally to go 3-2 up in the decisive set, but the drama wasn't done there.

They each lost their serve once more, before Nadal served for his fourth US Open championship - and eventually sealed the deal.

A SONG FOR BOLA

‘That was so good’ he smacked her backside and licked her lips, content with their passionate lovemaking…she quickly gathered the sheets to hide her naked form. Years of doing this hadn’t gotten her used to it… She still felt cheap and dirty after each client. He noticed her sudden quietness and was a bit perturbed… She rode him like a wild mare some minutes ago and now she acted like a conquered virgin. A Song for Bola – Episode 1 ‘I’m okay Chief…I think I’m good to go’ she hated talking to her clients after or establishing any sort of camaraderie with them…the idea didn’t just sit well with her. She knew it wasn’t disadvantageous because more men kept on coming to her….she was extremely beautiful. Not wanting to waste more time, she quickly slid out of the bed and began to dress… ‘Let me shower first…wait for me.’ She just watched him shaking her head sadly… He was old enough to be her father but things didn’t work that way. You see her name is Bola Maka...
