New York, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 8th Sep, 2018 ) :US Open at a glance -- day 12 Headlines + Del Potro in final after Nadal quits + Djokovic cruises past Nishikori in semi-final + Djokovic into 8th US final and 23rd at Slams + Bryan, Sock complete US Open/Wimbledon men's doubles sweep results -- Juan Mart n Del Potro (ARG x3) bt Rafael Nadal (ESP x1) 7-6 (7/3), 6-2 -- retired -- Novak Djokovic (SRB x6) bt Kei Nishikori (JPN x21) 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 Who's saying what "I hate to retire but that was not a tennis match at the end.
It was just one player playing, the other one staying on the other side of the court." -- Rafael Nadal after retiring with a right knee injury in his semi-final against Juan Martin del Potro "This year have been a fantastic year until this moment.
I lost four matches. Two of them I had to retire.
Negative thing is two of them have been in quarter-finals and semi-finals of a Grand Slam, close to fight for titles. That's frustrating." -- Nadal who also had to retire in the Australian Open quarter-finals with a leg injury in January "Everything is harder because I'm older." -- Del Potro "He's a gentle giant.
He really is. He's very tall, has a big game, but at the same time he nurtures the right values in life. He cares about his family. He cares about his friends. He respects everyone." -- Djokovic on Del Potro "She's playing unbelievable tennis.
She'll have a chance to beat Serena and I think she can stay with her. I hope she enjoys it."-- Kei Nishikori, the 2014 men's runner-up, with advice for Japanese compatriot Naomi Osaka who meets Serena Williams in the women's final on Saturday.
