Agreed, and we all know it’s going to deuceGoing to be the two longest holds of Rafas career here. Don't think Medvedev will be broken again.
Will absolutely never forget that backhand down the line. Even the Federer final in 17. Just traumatic memories. Even the USO win vs Medvedev really aged us all.That backhand miss against Djoko must be etched in the memories of all Nadal fans.
Yeah, at 6-6 I believe. US Open style.Does AO have tie break in the 5th set?
Federer one not so much. He blitzed Nadal in the final set.Will absolutely never forget that backhand down the line. Even the Federer final in 17. Just traumatic memories. Even the USO win vs Medvedev really aged us all.
It's more physical imo. The fact Medvedev chose to play lot of drop shots all of sudden is a sign. He knew he's tired and didn't want to stay on long rallies.
Yup. Ten point tie break at 6-6.Does AO have tie break in the 5th set?
Oh Federer definitely deserved it but Rafa was still 2-3 service games away from winning. This Slam has been left a lot of mental scars.Federer one not so much. He blitzed Nadal in the final set.
2012 hurts because Nadal was the better player in that final set. One miss and he swung all the momentum Novak's way.
Good manI cancelled my appointment, I need to finish this.
Ball hits a kid in the crowd…Anyone else being irked by the commentator constantly screaming "OUT!!"
Like you don't have to say it Every single time.
If the TSN stream didn't buffer so much I'd do them, but then probably have to deal with ads.
I have to disagree, for me it's definitely mental, as it's more about poor decision making and panic, same as him kicking off with the crowd, whereas he's still covering the court pretty well.
UnluckyPlease break here. Can't sit through Rafa serving for it.
I feel for you matePlease break here. Can't sit through Rafa serving for it.
We just know he will.He’s going to drop this serve isn’t he
