Best Grand Slam Matches of 2013 - according to Luvsports!

All good matches! For me the greatest match will have to be between the best players. I can appreciate the drama and even better shot quality of lower ranked players, it remains that most pressure and drama lies in the business ends of tournaments.

The Djokovic Nadal FO was certainly the most intense match for me.....and unfortunately clearly for Djoko too who was far from playing his best and lost his mind on the key points. I was also impressed by the more than usual gutsy shots from Nadal on those key points. He certainly tried to force the issue more than in any other match I saw of him.



Djko v Delpo at Wimbledon comes probably top in terms of physical and shot making though once again some strange lapses from Djoko allowing to turn what could have been a 3 or 4 setter into a dramatic 5 setter which eventually cost him the final.

Now now Tenez, let's think through before making such shocking statements.

I said it then, I say it now. That's the problem JS, I simply say what I see.

You certainly did not say it then.

Have you checked?

All I can remember is you moaning about Djokovic running into the net for like the next fortnight after the match.

Pretty sure it was upto me to show that Nadal nearly hit double the winners as Djokovic did in the final set, and I think 3 times more on the lines (especially when he went a break down).

Oh that was a fun match, I think there was a crazy period in the 4th set where every shot was perfection from both men.

It wasn't on Tv at the time and fecking youtube never upload FO matches now for copyright reasons, so i briefly saw long highlights of it before it got taken down, but loved it.

It was on Eurosport I think

Yeah I remember, I think ITV were covering some Nadal R4 match instead.

Yes, his demolition of Nishikori

Ah yes, that thriller.
