MELBOURNE (Reuters) - World number one Rafa Nadal produced a clinical display to beat Bolivia's Hugo Dellien 6-2 6-3 6-0 in the opening round of the Australian Open on Tuesday.

Top seed Nadal, bidding for a 20th Grand Slam title to match Roger Federer's record haul, dropped his serve twice but was barely troubled as he finished with 38 winners in a match lasting just over two hours.
