after 2021 rome final , i have zero fear that novak djokovic will beat nadal in 2021 RG SF OR FINAL
but i have a one worry for one player , that player is andrey rublev
i don 't think nadal is lock for almost 100 %
nadal could lose only rublev
this dude has game and forehand that brings nadal down in EVEN BO5 RG
in monte carlo , i am really shocked
after second set , i thought nadal will win that match
but rublev takes it 6-2

rublev has strong mental
i have zero fear that tsitsipas or zverev will beat nadal in RG
i really want to rublev goes djoker 's half in french open

Funny thing is I actually want Rublev if not Federer in Nole's quarter. Think Nole matches up well against players Rafa could struggle against and vice versa. Djokodal are almost using each other for their own success.

The reality is that Nadal is 35 when RG rolls around if he wins he is the oldest RG champion in the open era. Father Time is undefeated. These guys cannot dominate forever they have had extraordinary consistency and domination but every year it gets harder. It is inevitable and very soon that the slams must be shared. It’s pretty apparent that the gap is narrowing with the likes of med, tsitsi, Zverev, sinner and thiem, Rublev can knock out any of big 3 on there day at any tournament.

The oldest champion open era is Roswell in 72 he was 37 yrs old. All big 3 one injury away from winning there last slam enjoy it they have had fantastic careers. Don’t be to greedy win or loose cherish the moment

you not seen MC match ?
rublev 's forehand nadal back away and nadal had no answer to that
and he did not choke like tsitsipas are shapo
he can hit back hand down the line anytime he wants to
Nadal doesn’t dominate like he use to for sure he has looked less than impressive in the warmups for RG from 2019 onwards but that’s ok he knows how to time his preparation to peak for RG

still my opinon is rublev has the best chance
he will go least QF IN RG , if he meet rafa in 1/8 , that will be biggest match in this year 's french open

I’ll let u in on a little secret sky, it should relieve your mind - Rublev has not got the brains to beat Nadal at RG he has very low tennis IQ is a ball basher that is not good at making adjustments. He has not won anything above 500 level when he is on yes he can blast u off the court but he has not got the mentality to beat Nadal at RG Mark my words..

Thiem, tsitsipas and Djokovic pose more of a threat 100% to Nadal then Rublev
novak djokovic has almost no chance
why fans still have hope that novak djokovic have a still chance
he can 't hit BHDH agian and agian like 2011 or 2015
he 's dropshot will not worked
he just can 't

thiem and tsitsipas ? better shot than novak

Rublev has a punchers chance. I know that’s cliche but if he goes out there and grips it and rips it and the balls landing for three sets anything is possible.

Personally I still think Tsitsipas is Nadal’s biggest threat at this years Roland Garros. Yeah he choked in Rome against Novak but to me it was clear he’s the better player on clay at the moment. Question is can he put it together mentally and get some easy wins under his belt in week one?

I rate Rublev but no unless a freak match happens. Still mentally weak in biggest matches and hasn’t fixed the holes in his game. When he wins a masters and makes a couple slam semis we can start considering him as serious threat but not yet.

Have you not seen the progress Nadal has made during this clay season? MC did not see the real Rafa this year, Barcelona was a bit better, but in Rome he was getting, hitting his best so far in the final. Looks very good for RG!

Yes, I agree, Rublev has been good this year.

Sonego and Rublev going out is absolutely massive for Nadal.

Struff must now be the biggest threat to Nadal on clay, ever, simply because he beat the previous biggest threat to Nadal on clay, ever!
