Frances Tiafoe played some of his best tennis ever to stun Rafael Nadal at the
US Open and he was quite overwhelmed after the match.
Tiafoe is a fan favourite around the world for his sincere personality that sees him combine showmanship with high respect for his opponent. He had both of those in his win over Nadal and he didn't know quite what to say after the match:
"I don’t even know what to say. I am beyond happy, I can’t believe it. He is one of the greatest of all time, I played unbelievable tennis today, I really don’t know what happened."
Turning his attention to the match, Tiafoe admitted to Eurosport:
"I served really well at times. My percentage wasn’t high but at key moments I had some big serves. I moved well and was really aggressive. You have to thread the needle and play high risk otherwise you keep running like a yo-yo."
