Djokovic v Nadal - For the Final Time. Match 61 at the Six Kings Slam

[Hitman]

This is it, the final match between Djokovic and Nadal. It all comes down to this.

I mean, this is not the one to watch. My guess is Nadal will get crushed.

 

[The Green Mile]

Do these count to the H2H? Have they played any other singles exhibition matches before? I can't remember.

I cannot imagine it would.

One last one for the slam H2H

If Djokovic really wanted to I think he could win this 6-0 6-0, but he’s too classy for that

 

[Bastion]

As predicted, and the tournament wanted it, Saturday:

Match 1: Gold Goat v Silver Goat

Match 2: Future Goat 1 v Future Goat 2 ... to be determined in 10-15 years from now who won the new race and whether they got to 20-24.

I won't be home and will miss this. But no harm.

I would have loved if Rafa faced sinner and Nole Carlos

Maybe a year ago. Now both would probably be not so much fun.

61? I don't think the ATP counts it in the H2H. So far they haven't added Alcaraz/Rune and Sinner/Medvedev on the ATP website.

Djokodal played several exhibitions in the past. So it's either 60 official matches or 6x if we count exhibitions.

I may watch some highlights but that's all.

Maybe you didn't watch the Djokovic match

He is completely fun. See you in AO

 

[messiahrobins]

a 3rd-4th play off match at an exhibition event is surely the saddest way for the final match of these two to take place lol. How on earth either is going to be motivated is beyond me.
Sinner v Alcaraz i cant see being that competitive either, maybe for a set that might be. Nadal v Djokovic will descend into a hit and giggle at some point.

 

[messiahrobins]

They have played loads of exhos over the years, and no they dont count to h2hs. this wont either. Its easy money for both.

 

[paolo2143]

I honestly don't think Novak will go full out as he respects Rafa too much. I think it will go 3 sets and if Rafa won would not be surprised as i definitely don't think Novak would want Rafa to end on real low.

I predict 3 sets and either won to win 6-4 in final set.

 

[roysid]

This is it, the final match between Djokovic and Nadal. It all comes down to this.

Back to olympics, djokovic said one last dance. Whereas Nadal said who says its last dance.

Nadals words coming true .

P.s : i have no interest in competitiveness of the match. Nadal will be allowed some games thats all

 

[zvelf]

If you start counting exhibitions, then I doubt this will be their final time to ever meet on a tennis court. The fact is this is not an official match and won't count toward their official head-to-head.

 

[I Am Finnish]

What time does it start?

 

[Lleytonstation]

Winner is farm animal.

 

[-NN-]

Is it actually match 61? You telling me they've never faced off in another exho before?

 

[tennis_error]

I cannot imagine it would.

Why not? Laver Cup matches went to H2H, retrospectively, lol at ATP...

 

[tennis_error]

I predict 3 sets and either won to win 6-4 in final set.

It will be same as Alcaraz Nadal. We all know who will win, but respect to the ex king will prevail, and it won't be a total beat down.

 

[junior74]

It all comes down to this

 

[paolo2143]

I guarantee that Novak will not go full out and i suspect a tight 3 setter to thrill the fans. Deep down as this is an exhibition it won't matter as much to either.

However, Sinner v Alcaraz is different because whilst this is exhibition Carlos will want to remain inside Sinner's head for ATP Masters and next year.

I think they will both go full throttle at one another. I also think Novak was trying his hardest yesterday as he would have liked to put wee bit of doubt into Sinner's mind for next season.

 

[jl809]

Djokovic should play with only slices and Nadal should have to come to net within 3 shots of any rally. Let’s at least see something different tomorrow

 

[Purestriker]

Why not? Laver Cup matches went to H2H, retrospectively, lol at ATP...

Also an exhibition and I didn't count them beyond more than just a cool trophy.

 

[JJGUY]

I see, we need no poll for this final showdown

Laver Cup is counting for h2h.

 

[RS]

Lol

 

[Bastion]

Should have made it a wheelchair match.

 

[messiahrobins]

I wont be surprised if its a final set tie break lol. Same with Sinceraz match. The naivety of those getting excited over these matches is funny and yet tragic.

 

[messiahrobins]

You mean 12-7 or 11-8?

Incredible scenes for the last time.

 

[Palindrome]

At this point I don't really care about the outcome of this match. I just want to cherish every last moment of Nadal's career and witness the very last match of the Big Three dynasty.

 

[DIMI_D]

Nadal wins in 3 very poetic send off for the KING of KINGS

 

[roysid]

It will be easy straight sets. Because Djokovic wants that extra million for this win and he doesn't want to lose against Nadal even in exhibition

 

[Genie Of the Bank]

Live fed of the match .

Goosebumps

Seeing Rafa one last time in singles

 

[RF-18]

A one last time for Nadal, and their rivalry. It's sad. No more Djokodal epics till the end of time.

Remember when we used to see them every other week?

 

[flyingboris]

Rafa just looking like his normal self. Sad that it has to end, but let's hope for a fun match!

[Palindrome]

It's very surreal watching and realizing this will be their very last meeting.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Hey you

 

[MichaelNadal]

It's very surreal watching and realizing this will be their very last meeting.

Ikr

Good times

 

[flyingboris]

Not sure if it's the acoustics in the venue or the audio in my stream, but the ball strikes sound odd, like "pew!".

Decent return by Novak to get the break.

 

[Juice4080]

This is the very last match between 2 members of the big 3. What a ride it's been!

 

[Incognito]

Funny enough, I’m more interested in Carlos vs Sinner match.

 

[flyingboris]

Damn, both guys hitting some amazing shots, Novak getting the final word though.

 

[RF-18]

Remember when we used to see them every other week?

Yup
