2022 Roland Garros QF: [1] Novak Djokovic vs Rafael Nadal [5]

Adv. Edberg · May 31, 2022

Is this the first match ever that starts in one month and finish in the next month? May/June

TripleATeam · May 31, 2022

Damn, close one.

Lol Novak would have to pull a choke of Zverevian proportions to lose now

There's a whole set left to go even if Djokovic wins the fourth...

Rafa.the.Magnificent · May 31, 2022

Don't know who will win this! I'm pretty tense now!

tbf, Djokovic hasn't played 5 sets in nearly 9 months.

I at least know that Rafa will bring it for the 5th... and this set is far from over, as is.

This will go 5. Don't think Rafa will break.

Commentator is on form again after this wee one.

''Djokovic ball is now regularly finding what it wants.''

Cortana · May 31, 2022

This match needs 2 months to be over.

ACE of Hearts · May 31, 2022

Nadal better hold here.

Djokovic_is_the_best#1 · May 31, 2022

Big hold for Novak!

StrongRule said:
Sadly, the days of Nadal being a rival to Djokovic in slams are over. He is just not physically good enough to win 3 sets against him. The only way for him to beat Djokovic is in easy straight sets, like in 2020. But his mentality doesn't allow him to do it, he always has to choke a lead. Like today. The match was over the moment he choked the second set.

If it’s over, why you are here? @Checkmate

Kralingen · May 31, 2022

Nadal is giving this match to Djokovic right now. Miss after miss after miss.

PrinceMoron · May 31, 2022

Krygios thinks he is a tennis player
He should take a look at what it takes to win a slam

2021 SF is underrated. Yeah, some were saying it was one of the GOAT matches when it wasn’t. But then others proceeded to crap on it.
It was a good match.

About as good as USO 2005 F

James P · May 31, 2022

I want this to go 5 because I hope something special happens, but this is far from le epic tennis.

Sampras-Bruguera 1993 · May 31, 2022

Djoker looks like he is still warming up. Not an ounce of sweat him. Amazing. I would of had 2 strokes and 3 heart attacks already

The Blond Blur · May 31, 2022

Got to at least hold here to make Joker serve it out. That way he’ll at least get to serve 1st in the 5th.

ACE of Hearts · May 31, 2022

Pressure on nadal to hold or novak will first serve.

Third Serve · May 31, 2022

Nadal15thslam · May 31, 2022

Come on Rafa! Wipe the floor with that arrogant smirk please. Can't stand it.

That was a good match too. Had some ups and downs, but it was overall a decent match.

weakera · May 31, 2022

Tough misses from Rafa

As it finds Jelena for years

RF-18 · May 31, 2022

Good serving by Nole now and follow up shots. Nadal some bad misses though.

TennisTurkey · May 31, 2022

Who is this British commentator with Woodforde? He has verbal diarrhea and is talking absolute rubbish.

DSH · May 31, 2022

ACE of Hearts said:
Will nadal get tight once again?

It seems so!

Dominic & Andrey · May 31, 2022

Kralingen said:
At risk of offending people, the 2021 SF was easily better than this.

At least sets 1-3. Set 4 got pretty bad. But I don't know, neither guy seems to be really up to it since the 2nd set, despite being up breaks.

Yep, Z should sleep peacefully

Ralph · May 31, 2022

Ralph said:
Rafa to break here I'm thinking.

I was wrong. Fortunately.

ForehandCross · May 31, 2022

Anyone saying Nadal is playing better than years ago or so needs to watch his highlights. Nadal would never lose this kind of important game where Djokovic didn't do much and never make these kind of errors

King No1e · May 31, 2022

dapchai said:

Nadal looks on his last legs while Djokovic is playing like it's the 1st game. This match is on Novak's racquet.

TheNachoMan · May 31, 2022

I really hate that one of these guys will be gone from the tournament so early. Doesn’t feel right.

Janković?

The Guru · May 31, 2022

I’m sure I’ll be reengaged in the 5th but these last two sets have had the least drama a Djokodal match have had in a while.

dapchai · May 31, 2022

2 consecutive 5 set matches for Rafa. Mountain to climb.

2021 was way better.

Some misguided fool with a greatest of all time poster and 3 RGs.

He should be made to eat it

Djokovic is definitely winning this. He will win all the remaining slams this year now. Even though @mike danny will probably say Nadal is also the favorite for Wimbledon.

Start da Game · May 31, 2022

why do they bring blankets to stadium?

Sampras-Bruguera 1993 · May 31, 2022

Well Nadal can take 6 months off again and go for the AO I guess. Seems like faster surfaces suit him best now

ACE of Hearts · May 31, 2022

Serving first is a huge advantage in the 5th but rafa’s serve is not a sure thing.

Rafa has been ordinary or worse since 3-0 second set

I agree as well

I Am Finnish · May 31, 2022

Why is the Net cord hating Egg so much?

He clearly has an issue with Djokovic, here's me thinking commentators are unbiased.

LOL. Same. But he really has to hold every game from here on out. No blinking Novak!

RF-18 · May 31, 2022

Nole won't serve this out. Nadal will be on him like hair on soap.

Bubcay · May 31, 2022

A real rollercoaster. Neither player is able to put together two decent consecutive sets...

PrinceMoron · May 31, 2022
