Hail Rafael! Nadal reaches his 11th Italian Open final in Rome © AFP \/ Filippo MONTEFORTE<\/b><\/p><\/div>\n

Rome, Italy, May 18 – <\/i>Defending champion Rafael Nadal swept past Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-3, 6-4 to advance to his 50th Masters final and first on clay this season at the Italian Open on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The eight-time Rome winner had been stunned by Tsitsipas, seeded eighth, in the semi-finals at the Madrid Open last weekend.<\/p>\n

But the 32-year-old Spaniard was clinical on the red clay of the Foro Italico, winning through in 1hr 42min to reach the final for the 11th time.<\/p>\n

“It’s an important victory for me,” said Nadal. “I played a solid match against a good player who is winning a lot of matches on this surface. Last week I didn’t play very well in Madrid. Today I did better.”<\/p>\n

Nadal, seeded second, was playing his fourth straight semi-final, but had not managed to go further on clay this season.<\/p>\n

But he has not dropped a set so far this week and next plays either world number one Novak Djokovic or Argentine Diego Schwartzman, who meet in the second semi-final.<\/p>\n

Nadal’s run to the Rome final comes just a week before he starts his assault on a 12th French Open title at Roland Garros.<\/p>\n

“The feeling is that I am playing better every week, every day. That’s important for me,” he said.<\/p>\n

“It’s not a drama to lose in semi-finals. The main thing is recover my level. <\/p>\n

“I say in Madrid I was playing better, then I played a bad match in the semi-finals, true. <\/p>\n

“But my feeling, especially after my loss against (Dominic) Thiem in the semi-finals of Barcelona, I think my personal feeling improved and my energy came back a little bit.”<\/p>\n

“I’ve been through some tough moments after Indian Wells. Recovery of the knee again… was not easy to come back and to prepare myself the right way.”<\/p>\n

– ‘What did I do wrong?’ –<\/p>\n

Tsitsipas, meanwhile, who lost the Madrid final to Djokovic, was at a loss to explain his performance as he fell to his fourth defeat in five matches against Nadal.<\/p>\n

“I’m just trying to realise what I did wrong,” said Tsitsipas, “because, I mean, it was just one break in each set, if I’m not wrong.”<\/p>\n

Fellow Greek Maria Sakkari’s run was also halted in the women’s tournament as she fell 6-4, 6-4 to Czech fourth seed Karolina Pliskova in 88 minutes.<\/p>\n

Sakkari, a 39th-ranked Rome qualifier, had won her first WTA title on clay at the Moroccan Open when she beat Britain’s Johanna Konta.<\/p>\n

“I think I ran out of gas,” said the 23-year-old.<\/p>\n

Konta, ranked 42, fought back from a set down to seal victory on her fourth match point against Madrid Open winner Kiki Bertens 5-7, 7-5, 6-2 after almost three hours to set-up a Sunday final clash with Pliskova.<\/p>\n

Dutchwoman Bertens, the sixth seed, had advanced to the semi-finals after world number one Naomi Osaka of Japan retired with a hand injury before their match Friday.<\/p>\n

“Karolina’s been at the top of the game for years now,” said Konta. <\/p>\n

“She’s able to perform on all surfaces. She’s able to really show up to every match. <\/p>\n

“She’s very difficult to play in that sense because she has a big serve, she has big shots, but she’s also backing it up with being incredibly astute on court. <\/p>\n

“It’s a final of a tournament, so you’re not going to have an easy match whoever you play.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
