Terrific stuff from Sam Querrey - he's played some attacking tennis tonight and not been afraid to take shots!

Sam Querrey beats Rafael Nadal 6-3, 7-6 to win the Abierto Mexicano Telcel!

Mini break to Sam Querrey and then Nadal absolutely sends that FH wild!

At 6-3, it's now championship point Sam Querrey!

Anticipating a cross court return from Querrey, Nadal stands near the centre of the baseline. And Querrey sends one down the line! Smart hitting. 3-3 in the TB

WOW! Querrey runs into the net and Nadal mishits, but manages. Querrey goes again. Nadal JUST finds the corner

Second set tiebreak time!

What a passing shot from Rafa! He's sent that beautifully and that forehand was absolutely sublime. 6-5 Rafa as Querrey serves now to stay in the set and possibly prevent a decider...

Nadal is generating break points, but not doing too much with them. Conversion has been quite poor. Now we're at 5-5 on serve and Querrey's being aggressive and a half! He has been playing with intent and then some in this match.

We're still on serve here in the second but my goodness me, there's a fight and a half! Nadal's up 5-4 in this set, on his serve, as Querrey serves to stay in. Will we see a decider played here?

Advantage Querrey after FOUR break points to Nadal.. a whopper here.

Nadal builds up THREE break points, and he's still unable to capitalize! Querrey's low-balling and he brings it back to deuce.

It's not looking easy for the World No. 6 yet.

Rafael Nadal 4-3 Sam Querrey on serve.

Clean as you like with that forehand.

Fun stat for you - Querrey won 94% of his first serves in Set 1.

Querrey takes Nadal's forehand and twists it entirely. A beautiful shot from the American down the tramlines and we're at deuce. Querrey's not going to give Nadal the service hold easy..

Querrey seals that game with an ace down the line. Clean as you like. And it's a service hold to love for the American, which will give him some crucial confidence.

Querrey returns out wide and Rafa holds on, leading 2-1 on serve.

Nearly another break point for Querrey there, and he shanks it. Clean hitting, or cleaner, from Rafa and we're back at deuce.

Game Nadal. Is he going to pick it up now?? That was an intense game and a half from both Querrey and Nadal and it goes to multiple deuces before Querrey claws to hold on. 1-1

Sam Querrey wins the first set 6-3!

What a shot! That was some stunning placement from Sam Querrey. A near-reflex reaction to Nadal, and the American runs into the net with a great cc forehand.

First set to Sam Querrey!

Sam Querrey breaks Nadal - and he breaks to love with a great return! Now Querrey will serve for the set. Talk about your crucial moments, and the American has picked them well.

Rafael Nadal runs into the net - and Querrey's nowhere near. A crucial love hold for Rafael Nadal right here and one he'll be happy with.

Scores level at 3-3.

No breaks of serve so far as Querrey leads 3-2 on serve. Nadal, for all his dominance so far, hasn't looked as flawless as he would've liked today, sending uncharacteristic shots wide.

Nadal looks like he's going to hold to love....and that doesn't happen as Querrey battles back and Nadal sends a couple of his serves wide. He's held to level though.

Querrey starts serving, and holds quickly.

Nadal has been in the form of old lately - he fought through to reach the finals of the Australian Open, finishing runner-up to longtime rival Roger Federer.

They're out on court!

Sam Querrey became the first American to make the finals here in Acapulco, and has become known for his big serves.

Kyrgios looked dominant to start against Sam Querrey yesterday, but looked to tank in the later stages, perhaps, losing the second set and then the decider.

World No. 6 Nadal is the second seed here and now the highest remaining one after Novak Djokovic's QF loss to Nick Kyrgios.
