This tweet prompted me to look at bagel stats against other member of Big 3 :

Tournament Bagel Served by Opponent

2007 Hamburg Roger Federer Rafael Nadal
2006 Wimbledon Roger Federer Rafael Nadal
2011 World Tour Roger Federer Rafael Nadal
2008 French Open Rafael Nadal Roger Federer
2012 Cincinnati Masters Roger Federer Novak Djokovic
2019 Italian Masters Rafael Nadal Novak Djokovic
2020 French Open Rafael Nadal Novak Djokovic

Djokovic has ate bagels but never given one ??

Yep, when at their absolute best, Fed is the best, hence he's the bagel deliverer

 

[TheNachoMan]

Nadal fans getting increasingly desperate. lol

 

[Fabresque]

All them bagels and still behind Djokovic in everything. May as well have not even dished them out lol.

Well, that's what happens when a vulture benefits from the Career Inflation Era

The vulture is also ahead of both Nadal and Federer in their respective H2H’s.

 

[Third Serve]

Technically he did win eight straight games against Nadal on clay that one time.

 

[Vagary]

The older he gets the more it feels like he gifts a game to the opposing player to avoid embarrasing him. Not that it applies to Fedal, but matches like Rune USO 2021 come to mind. Maybe even the most recent blowout...

23>22

His single match or single tournament peak just isn’t good enough. He has accumulated a lot of numbers, but it’s hard to ignore the fact that his peak player just does not compare to Federer’s nor Nadal’s.

Lol

Guys, save some saltiness for future slams. You may need it

 

[nolefam_2024]

Rome 2019 was worst display of professionalism from Rome TD. Fair play to Nadal to bagel Nole in 2020 RG. That was op.

 

[sometennisdot]

Tbh, the real way to mesaure who is the GOAT, is to look at the amount of bagels given at French Open in the 2020's

 

[nolefam_2024]

I had 2 tennis wishes after 2018 comeback. Bagel federer once and beat Nadal at RG when he is playing well.


Nole did the second in 2021.

It took the last set of the last match ever for federer to get bageled, and not by Djokovic, but still it was very tasty.

Both wishes full filled in under 1 month.

That twitter account is an absolute clown lol

All day you project what you want Nadal fans to feel lol

 

[RaulRamirez]

I don't get the fascination with bagels. Of course, nobody wants to get bageled, but when it happens, it's just a bad result of one set out of a Bo3 or Bo5. I'd much rather win two sets 6-3, 6-3 than one set 6-0.

Generally players who hand out bagels don’t lose the match.

Rome did this to Novak three four time lol. How can you forget 2021 also
Don't know why, they deserved Med this year for pulling that BS so many times.

 

[RaulRamirez]

Generally players who hand out bagels don’t lose the match.

And even moreso, players who win two sets 6-3, 6-3 usually win the match.

Not in the biggest matches

You have to be a Nadal to take a bagel and still beat the opponent in a big match ( remember the match against Thiem ?? )

I think Rafa also lost a match after delivering bagel against Davy, don't think it was big match but Doha final

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

23>22>20

 

[platypus50]

Djoker is too nice to bagel Fedal during any official match, he decided to devote his energy to beating them in slam count instead

 

[ppma]

All them bagels and still behind Djokovic in everything.

'xcept bagels : )

US Open 2018...QF? Great match, if that was the one!

 

[Julius Caesar]

Djokovic finds bagels very yummy.

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

Well. If the set is completely lost better off putting all your energy into the next set. Djoker is no dummy. He hasn’t dominated this long since the Obama administration being stupid.

 

[Fabresque]

Not in the biggest matches

Yes, in the biggest matches. I can list off 10 of them.

gluten-free, cruelty-free

 

[The Fedfather]

Federer's top offensive gear was such that when he really got going with it, it was an onslaught of unpredictability - difficult even for the best of elites to read what Roger was going to do and of course that much more difficult to stop it. I think the 'always guessing' element of it was also mentally tiring to deal with, which helped Roger score the bagels.

Rafa's top gear on clay needs no explanation.

Djokovic has that scary af top gear too, pretty sure he scored a whole lot of bagels overall. Just against Federer with his serve and Nadal with the crazy defense, it's extremely difficult to force complete surrender. Extremely difficult to force it from Novak too, obviously, seeing as the stars for that aligned only a couple times.
