Australian Open: Nadal crushes Carreno Busta to reach last 16

In Australian Open Tennis, top-seeded Rafael Nadal routed fellow Spaniard, 27th seeded Pablo Carreno Busta  6-1, 6-2, 6-4  and make the round of 16 at Melbourne Park for the 13th time. With this win, Nadal joined defending champion Novak Djokovic and great rival Roger Federer in the fourth round. He will play against Nick Kyrgios in the next game.

If Nadal clinches the second title in Melbourne, he will equal the 20 Grand Slam crowns held by Federer. The victory would also make him the first man in the Open era and only the third in history to win all four Major titles twice, after Roy Emerson and Rod Laver.
