A HC specialist like Thiem is a guy Djoker fans hope is not in their section, not Rafa.Maybe now Djokovic and Federer fans will stop complaining about Thiem’s positioning in the draw.

Clearly you haven't been following tennis before 2018.How? The lone time Nadal get him in his half Thiem does not reach the semi.
Rafa has already beaten Thiem twice in SF and twice in F.How? The lone time Nadal get him in his half Thiem does not reach the semi.

Username checks outMuh easy draw
God is on our side this fortnight.If there is a God and he is good, Novak will supply bakery products to him in the final.

You start another thread about Thiem on Rafa's side, and it's all the Nadal fans have been squealing about for 10 days. Fed fans never gave a crap or started threads about it because we know Thiem poses no problems for Nadal.Maybe now Djokovic and Federer fans will stop complaining about Thiem’s positioning in the draw.
Djokovic was only ever good enough to beat 2015 Nadal, and that version of Nadal lost to Murray/Wawrinka in straight sets on clay....I guess deep down we all knew only 1 man has a chance against Rafa on Chatrier.
Earths mightiest warrior and heavyweight champion of the world!
I agree that Nadal will probably win. Probably 4 sets of that final happens. Novak most likely to take a set and make it competitive at least.Djokovic was only ever good enough to beat 2015 Nadal, and that version of Nadal lost to Murray/Wawrinka in straight sets on clay....
Djokovic-Tsitsipas will be the last competitive match at Roland Garros.
Thiem's reputation will be doomed if he's unable to improve on the 13 sets he's played vs. Nadal at Roland Garros (Nadal has won 12 of those sets).
Hang on. It was Djokovic fans doing cartwheels Thiem was in Rafas side. Rafa fans were not that concerned given we knee Thiem would be spent.You start another thread about Thiem on Rafa's side, and it's all the Nadal fans have been squealing about for 10 days.

Nadal gets a 5'7 guy in the semis who just played 5:06 hours in a grindfest, so nobody knows why any Rafa fan is complaining right now.
It’s a serious possibility that both Sinner and Schwartzmann beat Nadal.
Schwartzman maybe has a shot at a set or two, or even match, if Nadal comes out completely clueless, but Sinner? If this Edmund-face guy defeats Nadal on Chatrier, I know nothing about tennis.It’s a serious possibility that both Sinner and Schwartzmann beat Nadal.
I don’t see either troubling Nadal much. Only Djokovic has a chance now if he makes final. Despite that Rafa still the favourite.Schwartzman maybe has a shot at a set or two, or even match, if Nadal comes out completely clueless, but Sinner?

Djoko playing well but not getting carried away yetYou don’t sound too confident in Joker.... what’s your angle?
Still better than Bogdanovic and Gravinboginagis. Or whoever Fed played in those weak era slamsCripple fight between the VB and DjokeFam whose draw from the other favourite's is easier.
The ridiculously bad state of the tour is of no concern for either, though.

I would’ve preferred another Nadal-Thiem final, but only if Thiem was fresh and 100%. Fitness is an issue for him.Maybe now Djokovic and Federer fans will stop complaining about Thiem’s positioning in the draw.

He was.Yes, no?
Well, Schwartzman too.I wonder if people will appreciate Thiem a bit more now. In the 2018 and 2019 finals he gave Nadal a much better fight than Djokovic did today.
