do you guys think nadal can beat djoker in us open ?

[skypadq]

my answer is i don 't think so ...
i know nadal has beat two time in us open hard court ( 2010 and 2013 USO FINAL )
However, the us open court type will be changed to the lakyold used in the Miami Open from 2020.
and nadal has never won miami open
So it will be difficult for Nadal to win the 5th in the US Open.

anyway my point is if 2020 us open is held , no .1 is novak djokovic there 's no doubt in my mind
second is probably nadal or thiem i liked nadal 's chance more than thiem
third is probably thiem or medvedev

anyway , i don 't want djokodal us open final again

i want someone like tsitsipas vs djokovic final happen

so my question is do you think nadal can beat djoker in us open ?

 

[chjtennis]

Anything can happen amongst Big 3. They are very close. Djokovic will always be the favorite, but it's very possible for the other 2 guys to beat him.

 

[HetTheGreaterer]

Yes nadal can beat the heck out of djokovic in us open if there's a wrestling match to take place.

When did Nadal last win a set against Novak in hard courts?

 

[vex]

... you mean aside from when he has done this exact thing previously....? Nadal could absolutely win. Even tho Djoker should be favored Rafa is absolutely a tgreat

There is going to be a U.S Open!?!? To me that would be dishonest and completely wrong. NYC has the worst rate of Corona anywhere in the world I believe.

 

[Deleted member 768841]

Yes. He’s done it before. And Vice Versa.

Why would it be dishonest?

 

[flutzingitaway]

Why would it be dishonest?

Since with the the state of the NYC Corona situation it would be too big a risk, and it would be selfish and wrong on all levels.

This. Novak would be the favorite because of recent hard court results, but not massive favorite (since 2-1 Nadal at US historically). The surface change helps Novak further as it is more similar to AO (especially when it was slower in early to mid 2010s)IW Miami historically Novaks best swing. Still Rafas a huge big match player and if playing well enough to make final should be a real challenge (AO 19 was more the exception to the rule I believe)

Also theres more to the Us Open than surface, don't think Novak likes New York (and I can't blame him)

60-40 Novak. Would be a great final imo.

 

[MeatTornado]

Can? Of course.

Will? Probably not.

 

[bhpower]

Yes He can.
He has never won Maimi but was close a few times, once lost 76 in third against Djokovic.

 

[WestboroChe]

No. Because I do not think it will happen.

 

[Deleted member 769694]

If djok plays fed in the semi, nadal win. If nadal plays fed in the semi, novak wins.

I expect novak to get more easy draws until he wins a couple more to make tennis more newsworthy

 

[Jonesy]

50-50.

 

[HetTheGreaterer]

When did Nadal last win a set against Novak in hard courts?

2013 us open final.
But he came really close in indian wells 2016 (a break up initially, and had set points on djoker serve at the tail end)

 

[TennisHockey]

He can but I wouldn't exactly bet on it.
I'd give Nadal a 30-40% chance at winning.
