Nadal, Muguruza win ITF awards

Rafael Nadal and Garbine Muguruza have won the International Tennis Federation’s player of the year awards.

At 31, Nadal becomes the oldest ITF men’s world champion after a season in which he won a 10th French Open and a third US Open. The Spaniard also became the oldest player to finish the year at No. 1 since the ATP rankings began in 1973. Muguruza dropped only one set en route to her first Wimbledon title and finished the year at No. 2 behind Simona Halep.
