For Rafa fans. Still cant believe that he managed to pull out a Houdini act against Medvedev.

If Federer is somehow able to create a fairytale ending at Wimbledon as well that would just make the year for me.

guys I was live at the stadium when Rafa was serving for the match 30-0 up that ace I thought I heard the machine beep for a let, I was thinking that and thought in that split second it’s a let first service I went back to watch the full match live and I still hear that beep like it was a let and not called not that it makes a difference. But just to see if anyone else here’s this beep as well it’s at 5:10 I try to zoom in to see but it’s way to hard to see a slight clip of the net..

I rewatched it ten times or more. I still cannot believe it wasn't a net beep!

Matteo in 3rd round?

I'm afraid that Rafa won't win the ATP finals unless it is moved to the January.

I have a crazy thought to have Rafa winning the Paris Olympic 2024 and that would make it Double Golden GS. But Novak might achieve a Triple Career GS first.
why would nadal win the WTF in january?

One point away from taking Wimbledon beating Rafa and Novak back to back at 38 is as close as he got. Pretty darn close...

Dimitrov, Zverev, Tsitsipas and Medvedev all won it, so Nadal can too, just a matter of getting the right draw.

Nahh, its indoor ping pong, Nadals game is made for the great outdoors.
It is, but Nadal beat Tsitsipas at 2019 ATP Finals, and again at 2020 ATP Finals.
Also Nadal beat Medvedev at 2019 ATP Finals, and almost beat Medvedev in straight sets at 2020 ATP Finals.
So he's very capable of winning it.
Pretty close in 2010, beat Djokovic, Berdych and Roddick in RR, beat Murray in the SF, and lost to Federer in 3 sets in the Final.

Do you think that in Turin in the next two editions the Spanish player can surprise everyone and finally win the great title that he lacks in his tennis career?
:unsure:

Yes I think his chances are excellent of doing that, and I think he will.
But if he's injured and doesn't even play it, that's fine too, I only care about winning the slam race.

I think that Nadal would not like to miss a couple of editions of the ATP Finals in the new venue, especially since it will most likely be his last appearances in that great tournament.
