"Tsitsipas love and peace mode" is Nadal's trademark. He's the OG Zen warrior of tennis. Tsitsipas is just more poetic with his thoughts.

No, I meant OG as in "original," not as in "joke competition with 0 ATP points" : POlympic Gold?

What semis did you watch ??
Novak was deadly.
Rafa was laborious.
I'll be happy Sunday if Rafa manages to win one single set.

For now probably to hope of failed doping test of Djokovic.

It's Nadal's way. He was always very respectful towards Federer before their slam meetings and more often than not proceeded to go on court and give Roger a lesson in tennis.
Whatever happens, let's hope both men play to their full potential and do justice to our fine sport.

What if Nadal is simply less obsessed than his fans? He has been around for a while, won plenty and hasn't got anything to prove to anyone. Even if he loses tomorrow there is a very high chance that his 20th slam will eventually come, mostly likely in Paris, and even if it doesn't it's not the end of the world to him. 19 slams is enormous number already and he will go down in history books as the greatest player on clay. He will give it a good go as it's his best surface and "his" tournament, but I don't think he will be crying in his pillow if he loses tomorrow. I will be happy if either on them wins tomorrow and want to watch a good match.

Sure, everybody loves Fed and despises that radioactive waste coming from Belgrade.

Unfortunately, you are calling yourself a Rafa fan and somebody even believes that you aren't an impostor.

You can always tell he’s faking humility when he raises his left eyebrow.

Nadal has been like that for so many years, usually focusing in public on his real or presumed weaknesses and downsides. I guess it is just his way to approach a match, always trying to see the possible improvement and going for it but never quite reaching his perfectionist game goals.
Not bad that he is collecting so many titles on his way to never fully reach his goals

Where did you see him? He gave several interviews after his SF match.

Nadal was referring to this-
Coronavirus: Spain imposes state of emergency on Madrid
The order follows a court decision to lift a partial lockdown on the capital and nine nearby cities.

If Djokovic is not willing to grind, he'll lose in straight sets.What semis did you watch ??
Novak was deadly.
Rafa was laborious.
I'll be happy Sunday if Rafa manages to win one single set.
And Djokovic didn't look willing to grind in the SF.
Djokovic looked impatient and erratic.
It is impossible to hit through Nadal on this court, especially this year because Philippe Chatrier is 8% slower than last year (Mark Woodforde said this stat during commentary).

He's as fair weather a fan one can get. Not sure what his play is, changes his thoughts every minute. Stopped reading his posts now simply because of that.
