Rafael Nadal's uncle and long-time coach, Toni Nadal, has tipped his nephew to reach Roger Federer's record haul of 19 Grand Slam titles. Toni has also added that, despite the loss of form and injuries over the last few years, he always believed that Rafa could win Grand Slam titles again.

Carlos Moya believes that Rafael Nadal, who won his second major of the year in New York last week, is capable of competing at the highest level for a few more years if he manages to stay fit. The Spaniard is just three Grand Slams away from equalling Roger Federer's record of 19 major titles.

Juan Martin del Potro stated he was angry over his US Open semifinal loss to Rafael Nadal and admitted he never had control of the match. He praised his opponent Nadal for his improved backhand which helped him win the semi final 4-6, 6-0, 6-3, 6-2 and tipped him to lift the title again.

Juan Martin Del Potro was given a taste of things to come as early as in the first set today when an obstinate Rafael Nadal pulled off an inhuman stretch following a magnificent sprint to win a stunning point. The Spaniard has reached the US Open final, where he faces South Africa's Kevin Anderson.
