Rafael Nadal is the only men’s singles player to have won 21 Grand Slam titles. He achieved this feat by defeating Russian World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev in five gruelling sets. While at a point of time in the third set, it looked like the match was out of his hands; he showed why he is tennis’s greatest fighter and stepped his game up. He then proceeded to win the last three sets, making his place in history yet again.
