Rafael Nadal and Daniil Medvedev will face off in the Australian Open men’s final on Sunday at Rod Laver Arena Court. Nadal is seeking to earn his 21st career major men’s singles title.
However, Medvedev sits in the way of Nadal and No. 21. During the U.S. Open final last year, the Russian won his first Grand Slam tournament and kept Novak Djokovic from breaking the tie (20) with Nadal and Roger Federer for most career major titles.
Medvedev has battled with Nadal on four different occasions. Nadal has won three of the four including a match in the 2019 U.
