French Open Final: [1] Rafa Nadal vs [7] Dominic Thiem

[TheFifthSet]

Thiem looks way too nervous to do much here.

 

[Sysyphus]

Nadal already has this in his wheelhouse.

Thiem feeling the pressure of facing the hardest task in all of sports — Humbalito on Chatrier.

 

[Terenigma]

All of Thiem's tactics and ideas to beat Nadal and Rafa shows why he's most likely going to get crushed today, that was a beautiful dropshot and if he uses that more then the ballbasher is going to have no chance today. I hope he's got a plan Z because the rest of his plans are going to get picked apart 1 by 1

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Close up shots of Thiem's butt are the main reason i'm watching and so far, they're delivering.

 

[MasterZeb]

Thiems gotta go deep to Nadals Background and make him rush it from the first shot. Can’t let the forehand get into play

 

[robthai]

Thiem won a point lol

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Thiem needs to drop shot nadal

 

[Deleted member 756486]

Welp it ain’t happening today, I can tell.

Hopefully Thiem can win a set, that would make me proud of him.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Double BP.

Triple bagel is happening.

 

[maxrenn]

break points for the king

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Just dumb. He should have used the drop shot.

 

[abmk]

Nadal looks really sharp so far.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Nadal breaks.

 

[Your Hero]

This is uglier than a naked grandmother.

 

[maxrenn]

Thiem broken in first service game, gonna come at the king you better not miss.

 

[Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil]

Bamos

 

[TheGhostOfAgassi]

Rafa full on

 

[Sentinel]

Poor kid.

 

[WeakEraKing]

Nadal is smelling blood

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Thiem has no chance. Maybe he should go away quickly so he can to see Austria vs Brazil in soccer.

 

[Sysyphus]

Double BP.

Triple bagel is happening.

For sure.









3–6 3–6 6–0 6–0 6–0 GSM Thiem

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Thiem already with 5 unforced errors. Not great...

 

[Deleted member 733170]

Bloodbath already happening

 

[abmk]

Oh my apologies, i meant 4 sets.

k.

 

[KINGROGER]

Thiem struggling with those moon balls.....
Ugh on the BP, why didn’t Thiem come behind the serve? Great serve out wide just lets Nadal hit it back to the baseline... was perfect there for a volley.

 

[StrongerThanAll]

Match over

There is the break

There is just so much work coming off of the court. Thiem is struggling to even get a decent hit on the ball, I don't think he has hit one comfortable stoke so far.

This is uglier than a naked grandmother.

Some people are into that.

Maybe Thiem is one of them?

 

[steenkash]

Thiem has a weird a weird looking beard. Almost pube like.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Thiem wins a point on Rafa's serve. Will win the match.

 

[Krish0608]

Rafa looking sharp. Thiem should calm down and relax a bit.

 

[robthai]

Nadal to win 6-0 6-0 6-1

 

[FatFedererFanTurnsSlim]

I think it will be over sooner than this.

Couple of breaks each to get to 5-5.
Thiemanator gets to 0-40 on Wapha's serve.
Wapha saves 'em all.
Thiem gets 3 more avantage Thiem.
Wapha brings it back to egalite each time.
Survives.
Thiem serves an ace, then proceeds to lose 4 straight points with a couple of DFs and with it the set.
1 break in set 2 makes it 6-3.
Thiem collapses in 3rd set to get breadsticked or bagelled.
La Undecima biting commences.
The End.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

He can push nadal around but he needs to stay in the point.

 

[Krish872007]

Rafa looking great in lockdown mode.

Thiem nervous, only natural really. It's a super daunting task. But he needs to settle ASAP

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Nadal is not afraid, he's not afraid!!

 

[Deleted member 756486]

Thiem has no chance. Maybe he should go away quickly so he can to see Austria vs Brazil in soccer.

Futbol.

 

[NatF]

Thiem's only chance is the rain, join me fans of tennis.

 

[Krish0608]

Why is Thiem going for SO much. This is not smart at all.

 

[George Turner]

Thiem looks way too nervous to do much here.

This is the trouble with Thiem, not a big match player.

Does he truly believe he can win?

 

[junior74]

Why can't we see the shot clock?



TWO BPs!

Bamos Thiem, no?

 

[Deleted member 756486]

Arghh...

 

[Deleted member 77403]

Thiem is only reacting to Nadal here, all the play is controlled by Nadal. The court is crazy bouncing.

 

[sportmac]

Close up shots of Thiem's butt are the main reason i'm watching and so far, they're delivering.

My ex wife loved to watch Edberg return serve. Other than that she didn't pay that much attention.

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Double break points for Thiem!

Well well well

 

[ak24alive]

That was a great shot

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Oh yeah. More of that please. Dom Dom Dom Dom Dom.

 

[maxrenn]

Well here we go, Thiem with the bps now

 

[KINGROGER]

Cmon!!

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Great point by thiem.
