Rafael Nadal celebrates after winning the Australian Open quarterfinals

Melbourne. Rafael Nadal is two steps away from the 21st Grand Slam after his loss to Denis Shapovalov in the Australian Open quarterfinals. Nadal defeated Shapovalov in a marathon five-set, four-hour match to reach the Australian Open semifinals for the seventh time. Nadal won the quarterfinals 6-3, 6-4, 4-6, 3-6, 6-3.

After dominating the first two sets, he broke his rhythm in the third and fourth sets due to an upset stomach, but won the deciding set to reach the last four. Nadal has won the title here just once in 2009 and has lost seven of the last 13 quarter-finals. Now the semifinals will take place on Friday, that is, they have a two-day break.

He will face seventh-seeded Matteo Berettini or 17th-seeded Gael Monfils in the semi-finals. In the women’s section, Madison Keys reached the semifinals in 2022, maintaining her excellent form. She beat French Open champion Barbora Krasikova 6-3, 6-2 in the quarterfinals to record her 10th straight win.

This year he has recorded five wins at the Adelaide International, including a title win. After that, he has won five matches at Melbourne Park here. He had won a total of 11 matches in the last full year. She will now face top seeds Ash Barty or Jessica Pegula.
