US Open Men's results day 15

Djokovic beat Nadal 6-2, 6-4, 6-7(3), 6-1. The world number 1 wins his first US Open against the second seed. Personally I believe there is some controversy, when an obviously tired Djokovic takes an injury time out almost just after losing the 3rd set, which I think was for a rest, but that is in my opinion. Also not happy about the crowd making noise on Nadal's serve, which probably cost him his service game at 2-0 in the 2nd set. But in the end of the day Djokovic won and nothing can change that.

Head to Head

Djokovic, however, has won the last 5 meetings, all this year. On the other hand Nadal beat Djokovic at last year's US Open final.

Predictions Final

The world number 1 has played brilliantly this year as well as at this tournament. Last round he saved two match points on the way to overcoming Federer from 2 sets down. He has dropped 3 sets all tournament, 2 in the last round. Nadal has been in amazing form at this year's US Open, dropping just 1 set to Murray in the last round. His shots have been almost perfect and he looks like a man on a mission.

Conclusion - This is a hard match to decide, however, I think Nadal will win in 4 sets, winning the first 2 sets then losing the 3rd and winning the 4th to finish the match.

Tomorrow we will find out who wins these matches
