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

[MeatTornado]

Rafa may be smelling blood in the water

Obviously he wants zero part of a 5th set

 

[Soul_Evisceration]

Yeah Djokovic is making too many errors.

He should of closed out at 5-3 in the 4th set.

 

[Bubcay]

Djokovic will easily win this tiebreak and even the 5th set. Nadal's stamina is gone.

C'mon man... Please don't...

 

[NatF]

Nadal has got this.

 

[lud]

It seems that Djokovic don't even try to attack anymore

 

[MiamiWeekendWarrior]

I leave work in 20 minutes. This s#!t better be done by then.

 

[The Fedfather]

Alright. Time to admit Nadal simply is the better player on this day. When he was at his best, it was by a bigger margin. And at his worst he still manages to hang with Novak.

 

[ForehandCross]

Where's Djokovic's famed return?

 

[JaxTeller]

Bagel loading

 

[Third Serve]

Novak’s return has been very poor for his standards this match.

 

[NatF]

C'mon man... Please don't...

Reverse Strongrule lol.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

LMAO

 

[ark_28]

Lol not just no, but HELLLLLLL NO

Hell yes. Most weeks at number 1 most years at number 1 winning record against main rivals only player to win double masters first to win double grand slam one match away from the calendar grand slam.

yup he’s the GOAT deal with it

 

[Sabrina]

3-0 Rafa now, still only one minibreak

 

[JaxTeller]

Lmao..Another gift.. Should've gone for inside in

 

[Kralingen]

Game set and match. Novak had his chances but that FHDTL just dominated this TB

 

[James P]

Poor shot selection from Nole

 

[Steve0904]

Djokovic just hit it back to him there lol.

 

[Bubcay]

Alright. Time to admit Nadal simply is the better player on this day. When he was at his best, it was by a bigger margin. And at his worst he still manages to hang in with Novak.

Definitely better, almost the whole match. Deserves to win this...

 

[The Fedfather]

This was an unfortunate shot selection though

 

[The Blond Blur]

Knew Joker was going inside out there!

 

[ForehandCross]

The heck is that? why go right at him?

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Terrible choice from Novak wow, he lost it

 

[TripleATeam]

0-3 again.

 

[TheNachoMan]

Djokovic tried his best against the reigning AO champion.

 

[Bertie B]

C'mon, Rafa!!!

 

[Krish872007]

Djokovic went completely the wrong way there, Nadal is closing in on the semis now
3-0

 

[NatF]

The inside in was open but sure go to the forehand.

 

[PrinceMoron]

Just made that up

100 percent of tie breaks are won by the winner of the last point

 

[MichaelNadal]

Omgggggggggg!!!!!!!

 

[robin7]

Mini break up

 

[The Blond Blur]

All these late calls all match long

 

[I Am Finnish]

Pat Bev says neither will be a challenge for him in the next round.

 

[The Guru]

Keep attacking the FH that’s been working real well

 

[vex]

Hell yes. Most weeks at number 1 most years at number 1 winning record against main rivals only player to win double masters first to win double grand slam one match away from the calendar grand slam.

yup he’s the GOAT deal with it

Brutally hilarious denial you’re in lol

 

[flyingboris]

Face to get to 2-0 in the tiebreak

 

[TheNachoMan]

@Beerus the healthiest man in tennis

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Yeah, going for too much mode now.

 

[PrinceMoron]

How can you miss two of those?

 

[MeatTornado]

StrongRule getting ready to shift his narrative to why Zverev will be unbeatable at the Djokovic Open

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Too many errors from Novak. 4-1 Rafa

 

[Azure]

novak being more mentally weak in this TB so far - very tentative

 

[Roddickulous1]

You always take Nadal to win, no matter what. Djokovic is the king of tiebreaks, while Nadal is very weak on them. Djokovic will take it, just like last year. And then destroy Nadal in the fifth. It's a repeat of last year, just that this time Nadal won an extra set.

[JaxTeller]

Novak over hitting ... Nadal to win 14th and 22nd

 

[Sabrina]

I have to agree this is the first time in ages that Nadal looks livelier than Djokovic in a long match.

 

[-NN-]

100 percent of tie breaks are won by the winner of the last point

There must be an instance of a retirement from the winner of the last played point in a breaker.

 

[Kralingen]

Chokovic. The crowd chanting Rafa's name now.

RG GOAT for a reason

 

[onyxrose81]

Oh this is completely over now.

 

[Tennis sensation]

4-1 Nadal

 

[James P]

Feels over, better luck next time
