Yey! He can now have two bites at the cherry! Hopefully he just serves it out first time around.
Very impressive so far.

I am not so sure. Rafa could not have. Tsi can. If Thiem can get him to 2 TBs, Tsi can do better.Jahu wrote:Come on Rafa !!! Cause Tsi can't beat Djoko tomorrow for sure !!
Much easier for a SHBH to play Djoko than Nadal too.

Commentators here were saying how Rafa won the second set because he upped his game. Not how I saw it. Tsitsipas got carried away and started showboating a little, made some silly errors and got broken. Rafa only looked good after that. Now Tsitsipas focused again.

Nadal puts a volley in the net to give Tsitsipas a 4th match point and that's it!

This was amazing from Tsitsipas. Well deserved. I hope he wins tomorrow. Sadly, I suspect he will not.

Holy shit!!! I thought Tsi gave up that game at 30:0 and waiting for his turn to serve for the match, but what a fight, Nadals net play is criminal hahahaha
Go Tsi tomorrow !!!!

Impressive the mental strength from this guy. Sure he has the fitness to go with it but at 20 he is showing he has it all.

I think Nole will win tomorrow. But I think Tsitsipas will have a better chance than Rafa would have. No way in the world this Rafa was beating Nole tomorrow.Jahu wrote:Come on Rafa !!! Cause Tsi can't beat Djoko tomorrow for sure !!

Djoko is not even at 75% of his level and had a extra day off, Thiem was tired today.
Djoko is toast tomorrow.

I dunno. Agree Djoko was not at his best today, but he was defending supremely well. And if he defends well, the rest of his game is just around the corner. He will play well tomorrow.Jahu wrote:Djoko is not even at 75% of his level and had a extra day off, Thiem was tired today.

Djoko can switch it on if fit. Just look at the difference between MC and Madrid already.Jahu wrote:summerblues wrote:I think Nole will win tomorrow.

Btw a bad handshake from Rafa, cause he's a bitch.
Could of congratulated Tsi properly, wait at the net for him a few seconds to arrive and encourage the young gun to keep rolling.

Was it? He went out of his way to walk to Tsitsi's side of the court. To me that was a very sporting handshake.Jahu wrote:Btw a bad handshake from Rafa, cause he's a bitch.

I hope they can have one like that at RG too.

Looking very bad for Nadal, age has clearly caught up with him and he just can’t terrify the players with the promise of all out war on every point.
It’s all one way from here.

This is the first time since Rafa first appeared that he did not make the final of either MC or Madrid.

If Glenn Murray scores the winner then I expect you to apologise to Tenez for ever doubting his athletes peak at 36 theory @summerblues

Nole looking very solid so far; better than yesterday (and he was reasonably good yesterday too).

Djoko moonballing to extend the rallies...sensing Tsi is dead on his legs.

Djokovic looking in good form once again. Am I happy about it? For now I think I am. No matter how well Thiem and Tsitsipas may be doing, Djokovic is by far the best insurance vs Rafa. So, as long as Rafa is in RG, I want Djokovic to be there too, and to be playing well.

Still, the most glorious failure in history; the 3rd highest ever points tally (behind only City this year and last) and one single defeat, one off the all-time record.
And a Champions League final to look to. And the coolest manager ever.
A lot to be happy about!
