Nadal crashes out as Berdych defies record losing streak
Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic shakes hands with Rafael Nadal of Spain after defeating him in their men's singles quarter-final match at the Australian Open in Melbourne
Rafael Nadal is out of the Australian Open. The 14-time Grand Slam champion lost his quarter-final to No 7 seed Tomas Berdych in three punishing sets, 6-2 6-0 7-6.
It was Nadal's heaviest defeat at a major for more than five years, and Berdych's first victory over him in 18 attempts - his 17-match losing streak was the equal-longest in the professional era.
