This time he beats Rafael Nadal 32, in the final. While receiving the trophy he expressed his feelings saying: “I would like to return the favour and give compliments to Rafa’s couple of weeks. Obviously a tough match tonight but as you said that you came back from an injury that kept you out of the tour. You are showing your colleagues and young tennis players around the world what is the definition of what is a fighting spirit and resilience so thank you for that. I’m just trying to contemplate the journey from the last 12 months. I had been through surgery exactly 12 months ago. To stand in front of you today with the title is amazing. I am speechless.”He also thanked the team for being so supportive.
