Tennis icon Rafael Nadal has admitted he would love to finish his legendary career with more Grand Slam championships than rivals Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic - but conceded he will need more than 21 titles to do so.
Nadal fought from two sets down to defeat Daniil Medvedev in the Australian Open final, winning 2-6 6-7 (5-7) 6-4 6-4 7-5 over five and a half hours at Melbourne Park.
The victory ensures the Spaniard now stands alone as he secured a men’s record 21st major title, moving clear of both Federer and Djokovic - who were both absent from the Australian Open due to differing reasons.
