Australian Open 2020: Rafael Nadal vs Federico Delbonis, Second Round | Where to watch, TV schedule, live streaming details and more
The 2009 Australian Open Champion, Rafael Nadal got off to a flying start at the Rod Laver Arena when he demolished Bolivian player, Hugo Dellien to cruise into the second round in Melbourne. Nadal is on the hot pursuit of getting his hands on a record-equalling 20th Grand Slam and his raging form on court indicates that he is well on track to achieve it.
Rafael Nadal seemed unstoppable once he warmed up to the situations on-court and Dellien was often left baffled with the shots, even applauding one of Rafa's incredible shots. With only five games dropped in a 3-set match, Nadal has simply cruised into the second round of the Australian Open after defeating Dellien 6-2, 6-3, 6-0.
Nadal will now face the 29-year Argentine challenger, Federico Delbonis for a place in the third round. The duo has not met in the past but there is a lot on the Argentine's plate to tackle as he meets the 19-time Grand Slam Champion. Nadal's form is incredibly formidable this time around and he has got the perfect warm-up at the ATP Cup which has given him the perfect boost coming into Melbourne. Nadal should not have much difficulty in brushing aside the challenge from the Argentine and sail forward in the Australian Open.
