world No 1 Rafael Nadal headlines the list of players expected to compete at the 2019 Mexican Open in the Pacific resort city of Acapulco, the organisers said.

“Having the [world] No 1 is important for us, but it’s special because it’s Rafa. It took just one telephone call to confirm he’d be here,” tournament director Raul Zurutuza said. The Mexican Open, an ATP 500 event, will take place from February 25 to March 2 in Acapulco. Nadal won it in 2005 and 2013. (IANS)
