NADAL AIMS for 11Th TITLE AGAINST #NEXTGENATP STAR TSITSIPAS BARCELONA OPEN BANC SABADELL: DAY 7 MEDIA NOTES Sunday, 29 April 2018 Real Club de Tenis Barcelona 1899 | Barcelona, Spain | 23-29 April 2018 Draw: S-48, D-16 | Prize Money: €2,510,900 | Surface: Clay ATP World Tour Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing ATPWorldTour.com BarcelonaOpenBancSabadell.com Maria Garcia-Planas: [email protected] Twitter: @ATPWorldTour @BcnOpenBS Press Room: [email protected] Facebook: @ATPWorldTour @BarcelonaOpenBancSabadell TV & Radio: TennisTV.com NADAL AIMS FOR 11th TITLE AGAINST #NEXTGENATP STAR TSITSIPAS • 10-time Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell champion and World No. 1 Rafael Nadal of Spain will try to capture another title in Barcelona when he squares off in the final against 19-year-old #NextGenATP player Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece, who is making his ATP World Tour final debut. Nadal and Tsitsipas will meet for the first time on Tour, neither player having dropped a set en route to the title match. • Nadal is riding a streak of 44 consecutive sets won on clay, having survived three set points held by qualifier Martin Klizan in the quarter-finals before defeating World No. 10 David Goffin in the semi- finals, 6-4, 6-0. Nadal has now won 18 straight clay-court matches since losing to Dominic Thiem in the quarter-finals at the ATP Masters 1000 in Rome last May. By reaching his 11th Barcelona final, Nadal has become the fourth player in the Open Era to claim 400 wins on clay (400-35), joining Guillermo Vilas (659-162), Manuel Orantes (502-150), and Thomas Muster (422-127). The Spanish superstar has reached his 113th ATP World Tour singles final and is going after his 77th ATP World Tour singles title against Tsitsipas. The 31-year-old has never lost in the final at Barcelona (10-0), and will need to maintain that consistency if he wants to retain his World No. 1 ranking – a loss will cause him to drop to No. 2 in the ATP Rankings behind Roger Federer. • Tsitsipas is into his first-ever ATP World Tour singles final after beating No. 7 Dominic Thiem in the quarter-finals for his second Top 10 win (def. No. 10 Goffin in Antwerp last year), and following up with a win over World No. 11 Pablo Carreno Busta in the second semi-final of his young career (his debut semi-final also came at Antwerp in 2017). Tsitsipas has become the first Greek man to reach an ATP World Tour-level final since Nicholas Kalogeropoulos advanced to the final in Des Moines, Iowa on Feb. 4, 1973 (l. to Graebner). Coming into Barcelona, the teenager had only one Tour-level clay-court match win to his name, but has added five more clay-court victories after his exploits so far this week. Already the top-ranked Greek player in ATP Rankings history, Tsitsipas will vastly improve on his current career-high ranking of No. 63, as he is projected to rise to No. 44 next week, or approximately No. 35 if he can pull off a sensational victory over Nadal in the final. • In the doubles final, Feliciano Lopez and Marc Lopez will attempt to win in their home nation, as the 2016 Roland Garros champions meet Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi and Jean-Julien Rojer for the trophy. Qureshi is the defending champion, having won the Barcelona title last year with Florin Mergea, and hopes to recapture his magic with Rojer – the Pakistani/Dutch tandem won four ATP World Tour doubles titles together in 2012-2013.
