Australian Open 2012

Man Rafa is getting a beating here!

In parts, but he's also a set up and only one break down.

A lot of the lost points are his own errors rather than Djokovic's brilliance. Although Djokovic has been much more ruthless this set than last.
 
Nadal needs to hold serve now and make Djoko serve it out so he gets to serve first in the next set..
 
Nadal breaks back... ooohhh.. poor by Novak there.. this could be an incredible mental boost for Nadal
 
Now I just hope Nadal does not lose his service game because like wr8 said that will give Novak the advantage in the 3rd set by serving first.
 
Why even bloody break when you're just going to throw it away in the very next game. Ridiculously poor second serves from Nadal and now Djoko will serve first in the 3rd set. So predictable.
 
Yes!
Djoko breaks again and takes the set.
 
Novak is just making him run all over the court. He does that so well. His ground strokes have improved so dramatically.
 
Well played by Novak. He should win this set a bit less complicated than the last one.
 
If Nadal cannot beat Djokovic after the match the latter had with Murray who had 24 hours less rest, he is not going to beat him anywhere else for another Grand Slam.

I think that's overlooking Nadal's superiority on clay. Hard court has always been Djoko's strongest and Nadal's weakest.

Djokovic is the better player currently though.
 
Nothing is working for Nadal, same old thing, he's hitting a wall. Nole is too too good.
 
Well this match is done in my opinion. I am pretty sure Nadal does not have it in him to come back and win two sets now especially when all the momentum and confidence is with Novak.
