Rafael Nadal reaches Vina del Mar final on comeback

Rafael Nadal has reached the final of the VTR Open on his return to competitive action.

The Spaniard had not played for seven months ahead of this week because of a knee injury sustained at Wimbledon last year.

The 26-year-old reached the final of the clay-court tournament in Vina del Mar, Chile by beating Jeremy Chardy 6-2 6-2 in just over an hour.

Nadal, who has not dropped a set all week, will now face Argentine Horacio Zeballos in Sunday's final.
