Del Potro beats Nadal in an entertaining exhibition at the Madison Square Garden

Another great exhibition at the Madison Square Garden organized by BNP Paribas.

Juan Martin Del Potro and Rafael Nadal played a match that the Argentine won in straight sets. In between the point Rafa invited Ben Stiller and Delpo a very lucky young girl to play some points. Eventually “Delpo team” won a point with a great joy from the girl and the crowd.

From Rafa

“It was an amazing opportunity to play here at Madison Square Garden,” Nadal said “This kind of thing just happens once in life and we tried to enjoy it as much as possible.”

“Ben was fantastic to come out here tonight. He needs to practice a little more tennis,” Nadal joked. “And to play with a kid is a fantastic experience for all of the fans and for her, too. We enjoyed all of the show.”


From Delpo

“It was fantastic for me playing against Rafa in this stadium,” said Del Potro, “The good thing for everybody is that Rafa is back. It’s amazing how quickly he’s recovered and he’s playing really well. He’s going to be fighting for the No. 1 very soon.”

Fantastic!
