RG R1: ZVEREV v NADAL

[ojo rojo]

C'mon Rafa. Serve it out

 

[Hitman]

Come on Nadal, take this set. We want more.

 

[MeatTornado]

I will never get over how ugly Rafa's statue is at RG

Such a waste

 

[ChaelAZ]

Zverev studying his notes. Nadal looks pretty calm on the changeover.

 

[Subway Tennis]

There are parts of this match, it does feel like a final. If this keeps up it could be a classic. Whether Rafa can maintain it though is the question

Yes it will be really interesting to see how Rafa holds physically now that we have passed that first 1.5 hour mark. There have been a lot of high octane rallies so far.

 

[Hitman]

Zverev raising his level all of a sudden....

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Zverev showing great fight here! 0-30. Great shot there!

 

[ChaelAZ]

Nadal needs some intensity. Looks to have flattened.

 

[NatF]

Nadal needs to keep away from the Zverev backhand.

 

[TennisFan3]

Nadal won't be able to keep this up. He seems to be tiring already.

Why does Nadal almost always lose the first point on his serve in big games?

I will never get over how ugly Rafa's statue is at RG

Such a waste

 

[RS]

Good point from Zverev there

 

[Pheasant]

Dammit. Zverev found his form again. 0-30

 

[junior74]

Chains leaning into it. Heavy metal.

 

[Hitman]

Massive again from Zverev.....holy crap

0-40.

That’s the test. Rafa has looked great in the past for a set or two but then ran out of gas.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Incredible game from Zverev here!

 

[Frenchy-Player]

Zverev in fire !

 

[NatF]

Great game from Zverev unfortunately.

 

[The_Order]

Zed playing an unreal return game here

 

[TennisFan3]

Nadal serve doing absolutely nothing for him.

 

[ChaelAZ]

Nadal can't close. Mental lapse again.

 

[ibbi]

SMOTHERING depth from Zverev. Can't do much against that.

 

[Hitman]

GOAT game from Zverev to break back.

Dang!

 

[NatF]

Zverev in fire !

If only...

 

[Frenchy-Player]

 

[Third Serve]

frick

 

[Pheasant]

Dammmmmmmit!!!!!

 

[TennisFan3]

The set and match is gone right here.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

What a response by the German!

 

[messiahrobins]

Rafa's serve to the deuce side far too predictable i dont think he has hit it out wide once.

 

[aman92]

That was a great game by Zverev

 

[Olli Jokinen]

Ouch, Nadal looked very old in that game.

 

[Hitman]

Djokovic watching live. LOL

 

[The_Order]

Djok in the crowd...

 

[ojo rojo]

Mierda

 

[fafa]

Too much power from Z.

 

[djokovic the conqueror]

Zed breaks back. Vamos!

 

[Frenchy-Player]

Even Nole is here

 

[Carax]

Damn.

 

[Milanez82]

Damn Zverev goes crazy to break back with a zero hitting 3 huge winners, Rafa helpless.

 

[Quaichang]

Nadal 9/9 on points at netC

Z not so much lol

frick

Too passive from Rafa

 

[MeatTornado]

ngl that's pretty cool to see Djoker there

 

[junior74]

I will never get over how ugly Rafa's statue is at RG

Such a waste

Not sure why Bweh! got a statue for his two QFs

 

[darthrafa]

rafa shall use less top spin given height of sasha

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

Nadal mix it up. You were destroying him with the alcaraz dropshots

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Zverev BH volleys super impressive

 

[Subway Tennis]

That was a phenomenal effort from Zverev. He is almost at his most dangerous when he almost lets go of a set and hits out with abandon.

 

[Krish0608]

Rafa

 

[Olli Jokinen]

David Ferrer is looking awesome sitting behind the Rafa box. He looks 25.

Must have a good moisturizer.
