Rafael Nadal captured his 16th career Grand Slam at the US Open narrowing the gap on 19-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer a bit.

The pair have split the four Grand Slam titles this season.

World No. 1 Nadal says he's not thinking about surpassing his rival at the moment.

"I really never thought much about that," Nadal said. "I just do my way. He does his way. Let's see when we finish, no?

"Of course if I will win two Grand Slams this year and he will not win, we'll be closer, but it still happens one more year and he has 19, I think. I have 16. So three is big difference.

"I really don't think much about these kind of things. As I said before, I do my way. I'm very happy with all the things that are happening to me, win this title again. I have this trophy with me... Well done for Roger that he is having an amazing season too and well done for me because I'm having a great season too. Let's see what happens until the season and that's it."
