Juan Martin Del Potro Spoils Roger Federer vs. Rafael Nadal Meeting at US Open

By Anthony Blake

There’s always something to derail history being made in the randomness of sports, and that something at the 2017 US Open was Juan Martin Del Potro.

Roger Federer met up with the lanky Argentinian in the quarterfinals as a presumed prelude to the much-anticipated clash with Rafael Nadal at Flushing Meadows that’s never happened, but perhaps now it never will.

The 28-year-old Del Potro has now won five matches off of Federer in his career, with the bulk of those transpiring on the Grand Slam stages.

With Federer at 36 and Nadal at 31, maybe the US Open meeting everyone has been wishing for will remain a dream forever.
