Federer 0-8 @MC+Rome, Nadal 0-8 @Miami+Paris+YEC

[Hitman]

Have to say, they were too good to have such a number at the main annual big events.

Federer should have at least one Rome, and Nadal at least one Miami. Crazy it is 0-8 for both in finals there.

 

[alogic]

Federer really should've won against Wawrinka at Monte Carlo 2014. He was dropping so many finals that year it was weird

Nadal in Miami 2005 I recall got robbed with a bad line call in third set. It was for another break or something, but yeah he should've gotten at least 1 Miami

 

[legcramp]

What are the GOAT's numbers at these events?

Yeah. Some tough breaks for them both.

 

[TheNachoMan]

Winning all 9 masters and WTF isn’t for everyone.

 

[Hitman]

What are the GOAT's numbers at these events?

Djokovic?

MC+Rome = 8
Miami+Paris+YEC = 18

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

Well.. Nadal got to the finals of the YEC. With his game, I would say thats pretty impressive.. Considering the fact his serve sucks and hes mainly a defender

 

[Hitman]

The big Djokovic negative

0-3 in Silver Medal matches.

Ivan Drago - " He is not human . He is like a piece of iron " .

 

[MeatTornado]

It's a shame we can't swap 2005 Miami for 2006 Rome. Would've been better for both of them.

 

[maratha_warrior]

The big Djokovic negative

0-3 in Silver Medal matches.

He doesn't give a F abt silver medals . Either Gold or nothing it seems .

 

[Hitman]

It's a shame we can't swap 2005 Miami for 2006 Rome. Would've been better for both of them.

Imagine then that Nadal wins the first 3 HC matches and goes 5-0 up over Federer before finally he wins and snaps Nadal's clay winning streak.

 

[Hitman]

You have to win the silver medal match to play for gold.

 

[StrongRule]

It's a shame we can't swap 2005 Miami for 2006 Rome. Would've been better for both of them.

I doubt Nadal would give his 81 match winning streak on clay for a Miami title. I surely wouldn't want this. Also, the win in Rome 2006 final was epic. Such wins cannot be traded for anything.

 

[maratha_warrior]

Oh my bad . I thought you were talking about the match after he lost to Murray and Zverev

 

[Nadal_Django]

Djokovic?

MC+Rome = 8
Miami+Paris+YEC = 18

That's just ridiculous stat.

 

[Hitman]

That's just ridiculous stat.

Earth's Mightiest numbers.

 

[tennislove00]

I mean Ned was robbed off Miami title in 2005. Had they have electronic lines calling it would be 3-0.

 

[AO13]

The big Djokovic negative

0-3 in Silver Medal matches.

Djokovic basically needs one more slam (RG would be the best) and a gold medal next year, and he's done everything.

 

[ND-13]

What are the GOAT's numbers at these events?

0-8, as the title says

 

[daggerman]

The big Djokovic negative

0-3 in Silver Medal matches.

There's no such thing as a silver medal match. Silver medal goes to the loser of the gold medal match.

The negative for Novak is that he's never even played for a gold medal, and he's 1-2 in bronze medal matches.

That match was a ****-show from line judges. Federer was fuming during the beginning of the third set, I believe mostly because of that.

 

[MichaelNadal]

I mean Ned was robbed off Miami title in 2005. Had they have electronic lines calling it would be 3-0.

Exactly.

 

[duaneeo]

2014 Monte Carlo is the one win Roger should've earned.

Djokovic going 0-5 in Cincinnati finals from 2008-2015 in an interesting stat.

 

[LaVie en Rose]

There's no such thing as a silver medal match. Silver medal goes to the loser of the gold medal match.

The negative for Novak is that he's never even played for a gold medal, and he's 1-2 in bronze medal matches.

he doesn’t give damn about silver or bronze .Seriously nowhere on tennis platforms OG in tennis is discussed and glorifyied because Djokovic didn’t win.LOL .Mental asylum of a place

 

[LaVie en Rose]

Well.. Nadal got to the finals of the YEC. With his game, I would say thats pretty impressive.. Considering the fact his serve sucks and hes mainly a defender

He was not that bad 2013 his best year on HC.Now I agree ATP Finals in Turin as fast as there are no chance for him to make F in a mill years.Low bounce ,fast.No way he returns serve in such fast conditions his own serve is not enough effective

 

[uscwang]

Djokovic?

MC+Rome = 8
Miami+Paris+YEC = 18

Some called him majoring in minors back then

Cincy is his only weakness, where he lost a bunch of finals.

 

[Silverbullet96]

See, even on a thread about Fedal's shortcomings someone (a Djokovic fan too) simply mentions Djokovic's Olympic statistic and you get triggered, put down the forum and feel the need defend Djokovic even when no one attacked him.
And just in another thread you had the nerve to point fingers at Federer fans with a snarky comment:

From what I've seen so far Fed fans are majority here ,are incredibly devoted, well organized , ready to fight even die until last key of their keyboards to prove no player is better/greater /more popular/wealthy /even more handsome than him.

Hypocrite...

 

[Silverbullet96]

Nadal in Miami 2005 I recall got robbed with a bad line call in third set. It was for another break or something,

It was on 15-30 or 0-30 on Federer's serve, wasn't a break point.

 

[vokazu]

What? I thought if you win silver medal then you don't win gold?

 

[daggerman]

OK, but he gives a damn about gold, yet he doesn't have any. Never came particularly close to one.

 

[tennis_error]

2014 Monte Carlo is the one win Roger should've earned.

Djokovic going 0-5 in Cincinnati finals from 2008-2015 in an interesting stat.

Yes, and he finally prevailed and won not one but two titles... That's why he's goat, and Fedal isn't...

 

[LaVie en Rose]

Lol Fo

 

[ForehandRF]

Such a shame that Fedr couldn't win Rome, he was so close but still no cigar I have no problem with him not winning MC though, although that 2014 loss was such a wasted opportunity.

 

[TearTheRoofOff]

Your best results don't necessarily correlate with your best efforts.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Beatings.

 

[thrust]

The negative for Novak is that he's never even played for a gold medal, and he's 1-2 in bronze medal matches.

The Olympics are a glorified exhibition. A tournament that is played only Once every Four Years should not be taken seriously in considering a player's career accomplishments.

Well known in grand scheme of things in tennis (due short history ,notion that professional tennis in its essence is not Olympic sport)means nothing more than great accolade for those won Golds
it was added by ATP to make up for Nadal 0 WTF.What I don’t get why except Djokovic himself/his fans and ppl from his country as medals are won in the name of national OG comitee bother with Djokovic failing to win

 

[Mustard]

The big Djokovic negative

0-3 in Silver Medal matches.

Losing 8 times to a player at a particular major. Unprecedented.

 

[Mustard]

Some called him majoring in minors back then

That's why he hired Becker.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Losing 8 times to a player at a particular major. Unprecedented.

At least he bothers to show up and brave enough to take the fight on and even scored 2 wins. Unlike your idol who runs away from Wimbledon or Australia if he sees Djokovic in great form and himself struggling for top form.

 

[Sudacafan]

This definitely leaves both out of the GOAT conversation. It’s now settled for good.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Another major reason why neither will end up as the greatest of this era. They just aren’t as complete a player like Djokovic is.

 

[Biotic]

Don't bother, they're running out of ammo with each passing day. One day Djokovic losing only to Federer/Nadal in 07-08 shows his greatness, while other days it counts against him lol.

What's really unprecedented is that we have a guy who's been consistently losing to every Tom, Dick, and Harry since day one, everywhere bar his favorite slam ofc. The sheer number of nobodies he lost to at AO/W/USO while not being in a slump, since 2005 is mind-boggling.

Exactly right. It’s funny how Nadal fans dismiss those bad losses. He’s had many early losses to random mugs but some how it’s worse to lose to the clay god in the final many times than lose to bums like McDonald’s, Tiafoe, Rosol, darcis, Dustin brown, etc in early rounds LOL

While Djokovic lost to Istomin and Chung at his best major! Cecchinato beat him in an epic match at the French Open.

 

[The Blond Blur]

Nadal showed up time and time again to face Peakovic in 2015-2016. When Joker was in his own slump he barely showed up period and couldn’t face RAFA on HC during that time. Not only that, RAFA has played as many AO F’s and only one less Wimby F than Joker has played RG F’s. So, that’s not accurate at all. Players don’t determine where they’re placed in the draw which has a huge impact on if and when they meet.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Still nowhere near as many embarrassing early losses as your idol though. Plus not just majors but he’s been losing quite early in a lot of events off clay for sometime now.

Going back to 2012-2015 Wimbledons?

And Nadal has been losing on clay a bit in recent times too. He still wins the French Open more often than not.

The semi final win garantees at least a silver medal. Even if the winner of the semi final doesn't hit a single ball in the final, he is taking home silver. The final is where both have a chance to turn their silver into a gold.
