Rafael Nadal certainly thinks so and it’s del Potro that the world No. You’d rather think about how you’re going to relax tonight and have a massage and think about the match, think about the great shots you hit. Or at least del Potro delicately joked that he’s sought a medical timeout for a doctor to “rub” his bum. In reverse order, it was del Potro who knocked off Nadal 6-2, 6-2, 6-2 in the U.S. Open semis in 2009 before upending Federer in the five-set final — snapping the then No. Del Potro has also won his last two matches against Nadal, though the Spaniard leads 8-5 overall.
