#3 2020: Beats Taylor Fritz 6-3, 6-2
Having lost in the second round in 2019 to eventual winner Nick Kyrgios after squandering a match point, Nadal made a triumphant return to Acapulco in 2020.
The Spaniard did not drop a set in five straight-sets wins. He saw off Pablo Andujar, Miomir Kecmanovic, Soon-woo Kwon, Grigor Dimitrov and Taylor Fritz to join David Ferrer as the only players to win the tournament on both clay and hardcourt.
It was Nadal's most emphatic hardcourt title triumph among his 22 titles on the surface. The win also meant that the 19-time Grand Slam champion has lifted a singles title for a record-extending 17th consecutive season.
