so poor display from Nadal.. he should have break at 2-2

Nadal's return is drastically bad today. Bullsheet Russian's second serve is licking its chops.

Yes. On first serve return he stands too far. On second serve too close. Also Berrettini is somehow extremely clutch on break points today.

I'll pay you $2000 from my Nigerian Prince Uncle if you flip the script and suddenly become positive for Nadal in Ned-Med final.

Ive got a Somalian King cousin so I can add £40 k that

I think berretini is a solid opponent. Physically elite. Bh is weak but he is the best in form opponent nadal has faced so far.
However nadals first serve has dropped.

Berretini has a big first serve and Rafa can't do anything with it. I think Berretini is pretty good and I was impressed with him in the grass season but he makes silly decisions on big points. That's an area where he has to improve and well as learn to control his aggression. But yea he can hit the cover off the ball on the serve and forehand.

All I need is his blood type, bank account details, social security number, a security deposit and a vial of his blood.

StrongRule · Sep 6, 2019

3-3...Everything would have been so much easier if he at least got a break in this set. And he had chances to do that. Now probably too late for that.

He is real young too. I think we might have a handful of solid players in a few years.

Do you think fed and Djokovic are watching this crap

StrongRule · Sep 6, 2019

0-30 let me guess, Berrettini will hold again.

We will. I never bought into this generation of players having no talented players. There are quite a few.

Berrettini is waiting for you f****** Federer fans

MeatTornado · Sep 6, 2019

Rafa's groundstrokes are much more solid this set.

I know for sure that @Federer and Del Potro are

When you miss the drop shot 3 or 4 times in a row, it's time to put it back in the bag.

It was all nonsense from a certain segment of tennis fans we shall not name. Agenda driven. It will be all just fine.

Dammit

MeatTornado · Sep 6, 2019

StrongRule be like "this set ain't over, Berretinni can break back with the power of his serve."

Apparently so, but that's his comfort zone and it's obviously worked. Somehow.

StrongRule · Sep 6, 2019

Omg, he breaks! From 10th attempt or something. Now hold serve, please. Don't let him break back after all that.

theEndgame · Sep 6, 2019

No more luck for Luckitinni

Doctor/Lawyer Red Devil · Sep 6, 2019

Powerful servers tend to come back from two sets down y'all!

FedrMatt · Sep 6, 2019

Nadal is being handed this slam on a platter. He’s had to go through absolutely nobody

StrongRule · Sep 6, 2019

0-15. Nadal finally broke, now watch him lose serve right after it.

Novak, are you reading this?

Fedinkum · Sep 6, 2019

I still don’t understand why drop shots get praised while underarm serves is considered disrespectful.

StrongRule said:
I fully expect Berrettini to win the match. He is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO clutch today.

Thanks for the comic relief. Truly.

killerboss · Sep 6, 2019

Berrettini's luck saving break points finally runs out. Should be alright for Nadal from here.

He has to just run around the forehand or just blast the bh. He needs to work on the topspin bh!

Well, in first comment you were saying only about match against Schwartzman, nothing about injuries, so kind of wide open for guessing, no offense.

The talk about Nadal not lasting much longer begins somewhere around 2009, if not even earlier, as there was always this "Nadal will retire before 30’s because of his style" argument, which is now long past due. At this point I’m done with guessing how much time has left for him on tour, as I thought he was absolutely finished in 2015-16.

Just find a seat and enjoy the show.

I still remember the idiots who said he was going to have arm problems at 28

NoleFam · Sep 6, 2019

@Federer and Del Potro

The funny thing is Berretini is the type of player who has troubled Nadal on hardcourt in matches at Slams (ball bashers) in his career and the type Federer chomps for lunch.

TTW Nadal Thread Bingo:

Wow Ned looks terrible.

Is he injure?

Should he retire?

Why is Carlos Moya looking so upset?

Wow RAFA had 3 BPS and blew them all what is he doing?

Nadal should have skipped Montreal he's tired.

Broken back after breaking WTF Nadal?

Trainer is on the court.

Ned looks terrible wow.

That felt a lot closer than Ned winning 3-0.
