 | Nadal`s incredible winning series in the Grand Slam is over11-07-2017 |
Raphael Nadal retreated to one of the most exciting games in Wimbledon's history after being eliminated in the last round by Gilles Mueller with a 3: 6, 4: 6, 6: 3, 6: 4, 13:15 fight.
So the incredible series of Matadora in Grand Slam matches ended - he had won 28 consecutive sets in the strongest tournaments, but the series was interrupted by the leftist from Luxembourg. For the last time, Nadal had lost his fifth set in the Australian Open final, then picked up his tenth Roland Garros title without losing any part, and Wimbledon achieved three consecutive wins without losing a set before the thriller with Muller .
Historically, Roger Federer has been a leader in this respect with 36 consecutive sets of Grand Slam tournaments in 2006 and 2007, and John McEnroe has also stayed ahead of Nadal on this score with his 35 consecutive parts in 1984.
