Nadal verus Puerta
Nadal took the second and third sets 6-3 and 6-1 respectively with relative ease.
However Puerta, a survivor of five-set battles in both his quarter and semi-finals, found a new lease of life in the fourth set as he applied the brakes on Nadal's victory charge and forced the Spanish teenager to save three set points.
But Nadal held firm and it was Puerta who eventually succumbed.
