Sure if you say so..
He isn't playing anywhere near the level people should expect him to make SF
Just look at his Forehand, how bad he is timing the ball, so many rallies where he could easily GO DTL but the timing is not there. He didn't tank, he lost to Tsitsipas who played better.
But ofc u have to kick him when he is down.

I'd rather talk about Nadal's draw at the AO:
Duckworth, Ebden, De Minaur, Berdych, Tiafoe, RBA/Tsitsipas

Tsitsi was solid today, deserved that win.
Rare to see a player's own fanbase give them so much crap but Fred's probably the #1 contender for that.

That's why they are called bandwagoners... supporting Federer when he is winning but cursing him every time he loses. You don't see this with Nadal or Djokovic fans

Get on Nole train bro he'll save Djokovic legacy from Nadal
Medvedev is a danger - he believes he can get the job done, so have to take things one match at a time.

I don't think Fed cares about the H2H.
But it's funny that "one trick clay pony" who was "going to be nonexistent in his 30s" has gone deep at all the last three Majors, and also further than Federer each time. I love how this guy still keeps proving this place wrong.

I think OP is giving the Fed trolls a taste of their own medicine. It wasn't needed though. You just have to bump their threads about Nadal. Tennis_pro and Fedfosterwallace made quite a few of them.

True - have seen some Nadal fans do this, never seen a Djoko fan do it. Their retirement calls have been somewhat limited to the last couple of years - but then again, for them and their fans they have a precedent (in RF) who shows that it's very possible to be competitive in their 30s. So the expectations are tempered accordingly.

H2h remains 7-6 for Fed in his 30s vs Nadal.

Oh please god let this happen.
I’ll make a thread, just like all the ones made by Nadal tragics in the last 20 minutes...

At Wimbledon, US Open and Australian Open in succession, no it's not.Federer is 5 years older...further than Federer is to be expected
What happened with the "Nadal has been part of Federer's generation more than his own" stuff now? Shouldn't Nadal be crashing out earlier now as well, or has his longevity at the top become even betterer?

Tsitsipas didn't even play better. Fed just wasted all his chances.

The minute Nadal was past his prime (mid 2014) he couldn't even handle Federer once. A very old Federer too.

now new argument? Fed only improved his poor h2h on hc in his mid 30s thats a fact.
tennis_pro

Yes because Nadal lost his speed and he had nothing else to beat Federer with.
And the reason it was poor was because of tons of matches on slow HC in a period when peak Nadal faced an old Federer.
If you don't think age was a factor imagine a 25-year old vs a 30-year old Nadal, even on clay.
