Counting Nadal's time wasting that means it was effectively longer.

It's not a good match but i'm not complaining.
It seems -really deep down- Nadal does not believe he can win.

Murray from 0-40 down plays the next 5 points superbly! Brilliant.

Start engraving Djokovics name on the trophy. Breaks Nadal.

Nadal looks done, such errors only come from a player, insecure or tired.

I expect a result like this, but i didn't expect Nadal to give in this easy.
I guess he stopped believing from the moment he saw the draw. It definitly wasn't only physical.

brilliant match by djokovic
so farewell to drugs cheat drama queen el toro...hope we dont have to see him again for a long time
who bets he is now going to blame this loss down to some kind of injury...most likely old faithful ...THE KNEE!!!
after every big loss he disappears from tour...lets hope he skips wimbedon and the rest of the season too
congratulations to novak,this is a massive win for him...and much deservedly
i really hope he goes on to win this tournament,he really deserves it

Very boring match, not even suspenseful - and the end of an era. I kinda doubt the new one will be any better though.
Nadal will be No. 10 now, won't get a bye for MS1000 and will be No. 11 even, should Tsonga make the final.

It was extremely physical to me. Nadal started to believe in that first set but he knew he woudl not last physically. Why I am not sure but Nadal is certainly not as fit as he used to be.
I really believe the 25s rule is what has killed his hope of doing well. It's so vital for him.

But very similar to how federer started in 06, 07(had he converted his 11BPs) or 11. Easy start cause fresh but as soon as there were asked to cover a few yards, the precision of the shots went down and they are left with slugging it out......except that Djoko can run the mile, Fed coudl not.gallery play wrote:He was actually lucky Djoko started to play sloppy after 0-4.

Nadal looked completely drained of energy, don't know how anybody could possibly say it wasn't physical for him.
As for possible reasons - maybe his drugs don't work as well anymore, maybe his regime had to get lighter because of testing. Who knows? But that wasn't AO 09/12 Nadal.

That was very nice indeed. Nole did not even play all that great. If he had not stumbled in the first set, the scoreline there should have been more like the other two sets.

Nadal apparently practiced badly this morning, and he did not play a good match at all.
Credit to Djokovic, he played very well and deserves to go through.

I thought Nadals returning was very poor today. Just setups for the rally. You can't do that against Djoko.
There's a little hope for Murray, he knows how to put pressure on the server

I think Nole will have to play better than today to beat Andy. Nole was very nervous I thought and that showed in the quality of his play. I suspect he may still be nervous on Friday - especially if Andy keeps it close early on.

Nadal is done. I can't see him getting past Nole in a big match anymore, and probably not even Murray... and so goes his fans hope of a legitimate Goat claim as well..
Now we will see if his fans were right that claimed Nadal has so much talent he could adapt if the conditions or times weren't perfect for him. Can he come up with a new "game", a real change that will make him a threat on any surface other than clay?
As far as his stamina issues, I'll refer everyone back to what I said in January when I saw his hair was falling out in clumps and he looked a wreck-- all the years of not cycling down properly, of using new drugs that weren't detectable created a toxic shock effect. Anyone who's seen it before, can see his body was rejecting the abuse. No one balds in that type pattern- it's like chemo- falling out all over. this Nadal we see now is one who is off his regimen that made him who he was-- or certainly in a reduced regimen.

Agreed. The first QF was not all that physical at all. I was surprised how easily Rafa went down. I thought he would lose but I also thought he would give Nole better fight. Nole was just destroying him.gallery play wrote:The Ferrer-Murray match is more physical. It's played with much more pace.

You think so?
Nadal certainly did not play well after he realised that his best tennis in patches woudl not even be good enough to beat average Djoko. That is actually a fact.

What I noticed again is that When Nadal stretched him in the first set, Nole started to shorten the points but after too much running those UEs started to pour in and allowed nadal to come back.
It means that Djoko will feel it if he is being asked to run. All the other remaining players bar Ferrer maybe can make Djoko run.

Rumours of 33/34 degree heat on Friday. It's going to be a slugfest.

I quite like Ferrer but Murray will certainly be a tougher opponent than Ferrer so it's a good outcome.
I hope Murray will be able to step up to the task. I want a very long and tough fight as my preferred players are on the other side.
