Open Era until 2023 of couse ATP ranking is all about points, so the ranking is solely based on career ATP points (adjusted to current point system): each win earn points, a slam final win worth 800 points, SF win worth 480, etc. (Only calculate R128-F matches, a R128 loss worth 10 points, I...

Some fans keep bring up those concepts so I dig a little bit, what do you think? Career matches against toughest opponents with elo>=2400 Nole: 65 (36-29, 55.38%) Rafa: 56 (26-30, 46.43%) Fed: 42 (17-25, 40.48%) H2H against other big4 members during his own young peak years: Nole(11-16)...

In real life - if any of this is real - I'm a writer who can be quite imaginative, irreverent, innovative, etc. I get and write satire, understand irreverence much more than most, and am not totally averse to hypotheticals, even in sports. But, I just don't see the value in producing...

WTF 2019 was one of the most epic editions of tour finals without a shadow of a doubt, a number of battles, calculations, dominations, comebacks and shot making encounters. The highlight for me however was this one. Amazing match from Roger, considering that he'd played quite mediocre tennis at...

Rafael Nadal's Road to a 5th US Open (y) R1: (WC) Hijikata R2: Karatsev R3: (32) Kecmanovic R4: (14) Schwartzman QF: (7) Norrie SF: (3) Alcaraz F: (1) Medvedev

Next to each other!

Bot can be a bery bery dangerous opponent, no? Dude is continuously improving. Has a respectable 6-7 record v/s top 10. Rafa better be ready. What do y'all think?

I WAS ANALYZING NOVAKS AND RAFAS GAMEPLAY A LITTLE BIT AND 1 COMMON THING I NOTICED WAS THAT THEY BOTH CONVERT BACKHAND BALLS AND HIT A FOREHAND BUT BOTH OF THEM HAVE A GREAT BACKHAND AND CAN EASILY DOMINATE THE OPPONENTS SO WHY THEY GO FOR CONVERTING OF SHOTS ?

:unsure:

The most recent Vapor Cage 4 has not been anywhere near as well received as the Air Zoom Cage 3. So it would be a safe assumption to say that Nike will phase the cage 4 out quicker than the cage 3. Foot Doctor Zach (Tennis Player, Foot Doctor, Tennis gear reviewer) posted a video citing a good...

So guys who will be good matchup for a 2019 Rafa on clay. Mention the worst matchup too.

Djokovic trolling the nextgen at the end of this video. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

This is the 5th meeting between the pair, 2nd overall on clay. H2H is split 2-2 with one of shapo's victories not being an actual win, but a walkover from the Spaniard in the 2019 paris masters semi final. Shapovalov is the defending semi finalist here, who lost a marathon match to Diego...

I have been wanting to post this for a while... are these Rafa's new shorts coming up for either the second half of 2021 or maybe even 2022? I know he has often trained in an upcoming shirt/shorts months before their release... is this maybe one of this kind of circumstance? Or is this a...

Season is over, but Nadal's highlights reel can never end. Here is a great video I randomly found on the internet. He can seriously inject a huge amount of pace into his groundstrokes as you can see. Vamos.

Now that the uso is done is everyone ready for French? So many questions. Who will win? Will Djokovic be dqed? But as much as I try I can’t get into the French. I really don’t know why.

Novak would have still been the #1 player even if he had lost to RAFA in the 2011 Wimbledon final but in your opinion who would have been the "real" #1 player in the world had it happened? Since some give extra value for slams. Tournaments in that period: 2010 Canada: Nole SF, RAFA SF 2010...

Two legends, huge respect between them. Rivals on court and friends off it. Nice to see in these tough times.

Yesterday I was rewatching 2016 FO Final highlights, incredible tennis from both Novak and Andy. I remember being so happy for Novak to finally win the title after 3 lost finals (it would be a travesty if he didn't manage to get the career grand slam). That being said.. if Rafa didn't injure...

H2H :- no data available What do you think about this match?

Rafa clearly salty for ATP Cup loss, no? Disgraceful... Next year draw rigged with Berrettini in final, no?

Haha poor Rafa. :-D
