New York, September 9: Rafael Nadal's only blip in his US Open semifinal win over Juan Martin del Potro was losing the first set.
Perhaps, spurred on by the blemish the Spaniard ran all over the Argentine like rashes for a smooth win that included a bagel in the second set.
In the final, he will take on South African Kevin Anderson.
