The level these guys played at was incredible. Rafa is 33 1/2 and moving like he’s 25. He is hitting out even more on ground strokes and seems to have found additional power and depth. Sometimes people forget that Nadal has been in 5 Aussie finals, even though he just has the one title.
Tsitsipas has improved his game immensely as the year has gone on and has a real chance to win the Australian. His serve is bigger and his ground stokes are better than they’ve ever been. Anyway, I’d encourage anyone to watch this match on Tennis Channel replay. An absolutely phenomenal performance by both.
