hey, Novak looked really exhausted towards the 2nd half of the match, grunting and thumping balls with more visible difficulty.
i think that's the main reason for this loss. he could have and should have taken the match on regular ability.

Cvac was exhausted? How come he showed no signs of exhaustion after his 5 hour match against Stan at the AO this year? How come he showed no signs of exhaustion after his semi against Murray at last year's AO, and then went on to play a 6 hour final against Nadal? Was he exhausted during his win streak in 2011 that stretched all the way into June? Didn't look like it to me.

He was not exhausted at all in his match yesterday, and hasn't shown one sign of being so since his miraculous turn around in stamina in 2011. He's easily the fittest guy on tour.

He was undefeated this calendar year going into that match, yes ...?

He'd already played a lot of tennis. Let somebody else win for a change.

i agree, but aren't you always about fedal? Haven't they won enough already?

Who do you want to win this final?

they're taking drugs I bet. Nobody in the top has been tested for months I bet. At least Djokovic hasn't as he admitted.

Because Djoker at his best is nowhere near as good as Roger was at his best.

What are you implying mate? That Fed always won when he had a lead in deciding set?

It was just a brutal match which went to 3 hrs even though scoreline reads 6-4,4-6,4-6. long grueling rallies. guess novak tried his best. But I don't expect Delpo survive such brutal blows on best of 5. He just doesn't the movement

I was very well hoping to catch my 2 favorite players in final....awwwwww!!

Hasn't Ralph won enough RGs,already? Something tells me none of you Nards would want him to stop winning there,amirite? :lol:

Unless certain players are doping, I tend to think that the player who wins a tournament deserves to win a tournament. There's really no such thing as so and so player having won enough in my mind.

1 thing that I find totally unacceptable is making him play at 1 in the morning. There should be some sort of rule that you don't start a match after a certain time, certainly never after midnight. (I think there used to be such a rule at USO). Even if you get a day off afterwards, it still messes up your rhythm big time. I'm really pissed that they did that to him.

Well you would cos you hate him. Nadal has won far more and had done in 2011 but were you happy to say Nadal had sure as hell won enough?no. so don't be such a hypocrite.

Yeah, and you hate Nadal so what's the difference? Except I don't troll Cvac's match threads the way you do Nadal match threads, spouting butthurt comments all over the place. Reading through the match thread for today's final just proved your hatred for Nadal even more. Not to mention the immense butthurt you are experiencing because Nadal dared to win something, and win his first hc title in 3 years. Hard court titles are reserved only for Cvac and anyone else winning one is blasphemy. Nadal should hang his head in shame.

what a load of crap. First I was talking to Roorue who said Djokovic has done enough but who gets upset everytime it isn't a Fedal final (like they haven't both won loads and been in a million finals vs eachother). So that seems a bit hypocritical, as are you because you go on about Djokovic winning enough but you still love Nadal who's won way more. Show me one time I've said Nadal has won too much but acted like Federer hasn't?

And no I don't hate him, I don't especially like him either but that's not hate. And BS. What "trolling" of his threads have i done? You've really lost it well and truly or else you don't know what trolling is. YOU'VE trolled his match threads more than me. When did I ever insult Nadal today on the match thread? Delpo is one of my favourite players and I wanted him to win, if it was delpo vs anyone today I would want him to win since he's never won a masters and this was a really good chance. I wanted him to win vs Federer at the USO in 2009 too. Since when is supporting Del Potro trolling Nadal? God, you're arrogant, like someone can't support another player besides Nadal without being a hater. Stop this victim mentallity. If it was Berdych I'd be behind Nadal 100% (I said yesterday I wanted Nadal to kick Berdych's arse) If it were someone like Verdasco I simply wouldn't care who won.

When did i ever say anything about Nadal daring to win a HC title? I congratulated him on the win, he played well (still wondering if you're going to deny it) and deserved it. So I'm not allowed to be upset for Delpo who finally got the better of Murray on HC, got the better of Djokovic which is rare, only to lose in the final. Yeah total arrogance from you again.

Oh yeah and after Djokovic has lost you've posted crap like "thank god so and so took out the garbage" Show me one troll comment like that I've made about a Nadal loss? You can't because you're talking out of you butt again.

Who are you to say that any player has won enough? I've tolerated your favorite potty mouthed Serbian winning nearly everything there is to win for more than 2 years now. I think seeing Nadal finally win a hc title after 3 years won't kill you.

You don't? Your comments say otherwise.

Are you kidding me? Go read some of the butthurt filled angst you posted in the Nadal/Delpo match thread today. It's funny that you can't stand Nadal yet hang around in his match threads. You're not the only one who does that, but I will never understand why people like you do it.

I don't even post in Nadal's match threads during the matches. His match threads are like the bridge that all the trolls are attracted to. No other player gets trolled so hard that his match threads are nothing but haters and trolls. They are constantly ruined by Fedites and Nadal haters every single time.

Support your fav all you want, but leave the butthurt out of it when you do. There is just a nasty tone to your posts in that thread. Go ahead and deny it but there is.

Be upset if you must but why do you have to be so nasty about it? And stop using Delpo as excuse to be in Nadal match threads spouting hate. You'd be in there no matter who he was playing against rooting against him as hard as you can. Go look at the first few pages after Delpo won the first set to see the trolls making that match thread unreadable with their Nadal hate. I just want to know why people have to ruin those threads with their bs when they don't even like Nadal? I want them to buzz off and stay that way.

You took glee in the fact he's not going to Miami, which I find pretty crappy considering he pulled out of that tournament because of his knees.

And yep, any Cvac loss is a good one, but I do NOT troll his match threads, making them unreadable for his fans. Again, find me one player who gets trolled as hard as Nadal does. Just one is all I'm asking for.

You've lost you mind.Finally it's happened.

First, I was talking about a Fedal fan who roots for Fedal finals all the time saying another guy had won enough. I never started saying someone had won enough. You're saying who am I to say it when i never actually said it but you have said it yourself. And your idea of winning everything is ridiculous. I've endured Nadal winning nearly every clay event for 9 years but you'll still be moaning if Djokovic takes one this year.

And again WHAT BUTTHURT COMMENTS??? Please post them because you're either making this stuff up or you really are a sensitve soul that views anything that is not praise of Nadal as being butthurt. I bloody well congratulated Nadalon his win and said he deserved it but year I was also dissapointed that the one week Delpo manages to beat Murray and Djokovic which would usually get you the title, Nadal happens to be in good form and beats him. I mean has to co-incide this week. Big deal. I never insulted Nadal once or made any nasty comments about him or any gloatng while Delpo was up.I even said when he was up that delpo had to careful against a great player like Nadal. GREAT PLAYER. Not buttpicker, not moonballer, none of those names. I barely mentioned Nadal at all.

WHERE THE HELL WAS I NASTY IN SUPPORT OF DELPO?? You're making stuff up again like a chronic liar.

Also that match thread was NOT a Nadal match thread, it was a Nadal-Delpo thread. It isn't all about Nadal. I have been a big fan of delpo since at least 2008 and wanted him to beat Federer and Djokovic several times, sorry it's not all about Nadal. The only reason why I was in his match threads in the golden swing was because no other top tennis was going on. Apart from the IW final and maybe Gulbis's match who I also like, I never watched any of Nadal's matches. If he was playing Murray or Tsonga etc, I would not have even watched the final. And in his other match threads in the 3 clay events, find one time (except the match vs Nalbandian) where I rooted against him. You can't.

You post utter bs with out any evidence whatsoever. And the reason why I am glad him (and Federer) arent playing Miami is because Delpotro wouldn't have to go through 3 of the top 4 again, though realistically he probably won't repeat this run. It would be more nasty to want him to play and ruin his knees, but ultimately I don'tcare where and when he plays. I'm just looking on the bright side that with Fedal gone it'll make things easier for Delpo.But usually I want all the top players playing.

You go on about all the trolls spewing hate about Nadal on match threads but do you lack the intelligence to realise that I am not one of them? I never said anything hateful about Nadal on that thread so you need to 1, either find some posts that prove otherwise, 2, apologise or 3, shut the hell up.

Same old arrogant ****, anyone who doesn't love Nadal is a hater. And you somehow think that just because you don't troll match threads, posting boasting insulting comments AFTER the match is ok. Like Insulting a player post match and stating anyone but Djokovic for every event is ok but cheering for an opponent other than Nadal in a match thread isn't? You really are a childish **** with an entitlement complex. You seriously need to grow up and stop flat out lying.

And post some coments to back up your claims (since you always post bs and fail to back it up with anything)

you're very funny, guys.

You made me discover the english idiom: "it takes two to tango". I's particularly appropriate speaking of the argentinian.
