Nadal swept his right foot along the baseline, clearing away the red dust as he has so many times before. He rapped his shoes’ soles with his racket _ right, then left, then right again. He discarded one tennis ball behind him, another in the pocket of his blue shorts. And then, finally ready to proceed, Nadal delivered an ace at 106 mph to cap a flawless performance and a surprisingly lopsided 6-0, 6-2, 7-5 victory. (Source: Reuters)
