Screw the haters! Lets get number 19!!!!!!
You mean King of Clay and Prince of all other surfraces?
disagree. a specialist means thats the only thing he excels at. he is clay court cheat code and all court specialist.....
On that logic Federer merely an indoor specialist
Whats WTF?
World Tour Finals (Year end tournament)
Oh the corporate exhibition event...i never bother watching it.
end of year exhibition.
it's trash. a round robin even that is best of 3. lmao.
Rafa has withdrawn half the time and will again this year if he wins USO. Its a meaningless event...u can lose yet win lol.
Djokovic is a hard court specialist but clearly an all round great. Just like Nadal as u say
Every player says Masters 1000 bigger that WTF...reason all say is that u have to win every match and so many players are present. The round robin format is exhibition stuff
like i said he is great on all surfaces. he is cheat code on clay.
the fact zverev and dimitrov have both won wtf tells you all you need to know about it compared to slams or olympic gold.
4 USO titles on Sunday, which would make him the fourth player with more USO titles in the history of the Open Era, only behind Sampras, Federer and Connors. Nadal is also the best US Open player of the 2010s decade with 4 titles.
Touched a sore spot did I? I just posted legitimate facts of what Nadal has won. I didn't include a lot of things, just yearly events.
I agree.
Ok? I 'literally' just posted some stats of what Nadal has won.
Yeah, it makes no sense to just call a tournament an exho just because your player hasn't won it. The same goes for Fed fans about the Olympics.
Thats the point...only 8 players play and u can lose yet still win. Its that part that ruins it.
WTF needs to be straight knock out of top 16.
I'm a Fed fan and the Olympics are definitely not an exho. Djokovic's tears in his loss to DelPo at Rio showed that. Monica Puig winning gold showed how big it is. Winning Olympic Gold is harder and more prestigious than the WTF which is true but having not won an Olympic Gold isn't as bad as not having won the WTF since that's held yearly while the Olympics are very 4 years.
i got some bad news for you. berretini wouldn't make the semis of anything resembling clay. nor would anderson who was in the finals of wimby last year. anderson, howerver did make the finals of USO and Wimbledon.....When clay-court specialist dubbed 'King of Clay' meets non-clay courts that are slowed closer to clay
And yet Nadal still hasn't won one. Even in a tournament where you can lose and still win, he's never won! Amazing.
Yeah, but you're also discounting the tournaments in which the player won it without losing any matches... which Fed did five times, Djokovic three times, and Nadal still zero.
Yes you can lose multiple matches and still win the "tournament". Thats not any kind of real tournament that allows 8 people only in and you can lose matches and still win...
I mean, I wasn't talking about all Fed fans, but I have seen a few who place Olympics below Masters 1000 level.
That's crazy talk definitely. You go down in history as an Olympic gold medalist. Nobody outside of tennis gives a crap if you won the Paris Masters once
Not the players...certainly not this generation. Its a massive deal now. Didnt used to be in 90s but now it is. And there is a downside as more important olympics get then more likely Majors end up best of 3 sets as well
And Nadal hasn't won anyZVEREV has won a WTF.
Sad.Rafa skips it most years lol
Well rafa never plays it nowadays and wont this year as will be on honeymoon.And Nadal hasn't won any
even delpo said his olympic bronze meant more to him than his USO slam. tsitsipas said he'd rather win olympic gold than a slam. Djoker cried after losing his chance for a medal.....
Played: 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017.
If i were a player id want Olympic Gold for sure...and Djokovic has said its his priority now.
