A reporter at Sunday’s Miami Open final was apparently watching a different match from everybody else.
After Rafael Nadal lost the Miami Open title to rival Roger Federer 6-3, 6-4, he was congratulated by a journalist on the victory in his post-match press conference. Upon Nadal pointing out that he had actually lost, the reporter then attempted to save face, leading to this awkward exchange.
The rivalry between Nadal and Federer, arguably the greatest one in the history of tennis, has gained new life in 2017. Federer has now won their last four consecutive meetings, but Nadal still leads the all-time head-to-head 23-14. And if you ask some people, the margin separating the two is even greater.
