Rafael looking just as good as ever.
I'm not convinced on the 2021 US Open, but he's still the man to beat at the 2022 French Open.

In before 50 posts:
"Dude's looking fat af."
"Rafa's ass is enormous."
"Bigger porker than Stanimal."
Hope the American HC swing doesn't bring back all the "Rafa fatso" posters.

Will never cease to be impressed by how damn hard he hits in practice.
I saw Rafa practicing in London at the O2. The sound of his ball striking takes your breath away. You can't imagine that whilst watching it on the tv. The poor junior practicing with him was shaking his head.

He hits in practice the way Thiem hits in a match.

He's looking out of shape for sure. And he's lost a lot of his longer 5 set matches because of poor fitness and lack of endurance.
Even Fed at 35 was fitter than Nadal at 35.

Nice post. I was about to say the same thing.I think you’re remembering it differently

Well, that's the point. Epic match from start to finish, dare I say better than the Wimbledon final in terms of quality.I think you’re remembering it differently
That was just the only good gif I could find of the match.

Well, that’s a given considering quality wise Wimby 2019 was mediocre at best lol.
As far as epic gifs go, I’ve got that covered

Fed will end third wheel though in the GOAT race.

I don't know about that. As of now I feel that Fed or Nadal will not add any slams.
F.O 2022 is the last and only chance for Nadal. If he fails to win, he will finish at 20 slams. That's a tough ask at 36.
This year he lost to Novak, but next year he will be vulnerable to not only Novak but also Titspas, Thiem, Zverev, Shapo etc. So the chances are lower for Rafa@F.O 2022.
If Fedal both finish at 20 slams, Fed might be greater than Nadal given higher weeks at #1, WTF titles etc - which mitigates H2H to a certain extent.

I don’t Rafa is finished yet but time will tell on that. Djoko will back and next gen in mix too. At least Rafa has chances to add slams though whereas Fed chances pretty much zero chance now.
