Is it bad that I found that hysterical?

Why are people saying that Nadal almost had an epic meltdown?
He didn't even LOSE THE SET nor was he in any position close to defeat throughout the match.
He just got the breaker and dispatched Tsonga.
In all seriousness, their rivalry is getting really interesting no matter what happens tomorrow. I want to see if Djokovic passes Nadal's total weeks at number 1 before he gives it up
Rain's in the forecast!!
Bad news for Rafa depending on when the weather gets bad. If it's windy, but not raining, then it's bad news for Novak.
Yep heavy showers are forecast which doesn't bode well for Rafa.

Why would the rain be bad for Hafa?
Doesn't he thrive in the slow and damp conditions?
Because he blew a 5-1 lead and 5 match points before he got to that tiebreak. He never should have been in a tiebreak with a lead like that.
It has to be Slow and SUPER HIGH BOUCING...Rain just makes it slower but the ball soak so much they don't bounce as well.
Nadal won't be able to assault shoulder height balls over Federer backhand if there was rain soaked balls.

Match time pls ? ,it would be better if match time is mentioned in OP

Djokovic hopefully, I want him to get the masters slam this season! Monte Carlo and Cinncinati.
Looking forward to this.
Possible huge upset in the making.
Either that or another routine straight set job.
Rafa will trounce Djokovic... It's going to be quite the spectacle...
He couldn't trounce Dimitrov or Tsonga. Just how on earth is he going to trounce the guy who has owned him on all surfaces for the past 2 years?
How so? It will not be an upset when Cvac beats Nadal tomorrow. It would only be an upset if Nadal were to beat Cvac.

If, and that's a big IF, Djoker plays in 2.0 mode (last seen against Ferrer at AO) Nadal (even at his best 10.0) is toast. Of course, without wind. If he plays like today he can still win but it will be close.

Clay H2H for past 2 years - Nadal 3-2 Djokovic
Thanks for playing.
Oh and how did Nadal lose to Zeb, almost lose against Alund and Berloq and then crush Ferrer and Nalbandian?

they said it might rain tomorrow. if it does, I'll take Novak in two.
What would you know? You keep screwing up you Nadal predictions, for the last 3 events....
And who has won their last 3 meetings? Dimi and Tsonga gave Nadal no rhythm (they played cat and mouse), whereas all Djokovic does is stand on or behind the baseline.
It rained at 2012 Roland Garros, even on the 2nd day of that match when Nadal broke Djokovic twice in the 4th set....And it also rained at the 2011 Roland Garros final (vs Federer). Seems like rain favors Nadal.
I usually don't read your posts and just skim past them, but this right here shows you have no clue what you're talking about. Did you ever stop to think that Cvac loves rhythm himself? He is going to get into a groove against Nadal because Nadal will play the exact type of game that he feasts on. To beat Cvac you must have variety and mix it up. Giving him any sort of rhythm is the last thing you want to do.
Rain does not favor Nadal. He himself has said he doesn't like playing in wet conditions and likes sunny and dry weather. More proof you have no clue what's going on.
Because Ferrer and Nalby played horribly. And wasn't Nalby up a double break in the second set of that match? You also cannot compare those guys to a dude who has been practically untouchable for more than 2 years now.
And he surrended the 3-0 lead and never won another game if I recall correctly.
Not on clay. On clay nadal has been practically untouchable for the past 2 years. Wait no, make that 9 years. But just from 2011 onwards he's -
3-2 vs Djokovic
9 titles to 3 (3 masters to 2, 1 slam to 0)
68-4 - Djokovic is 39-5
So Nadal has been nearly untouchable on clay -the results prove he has been better on clay than Djokovic, and it will be a huge upset if Djokovic becomes the first man in 9 years to take more than one set from Nadal at MC. Noone has even taken more than one set from Nadal at MC in total over multiple years! That's how dominant he is. His dominance at MC is the greatest of any player at any event in the history of open era tennis.
Nadal doesn't like wet conditions, but he's so dominant on clay that he's still the favorite vs Djokovic and Federer based on the last 2 wet Roland Garros finals.
