The day Novak became the people's champion.

[tex123]

There you go Novak fans. Sorry he lost the match. But he became the people's champion. All his life he wanted crowd support. I've never seen such crowd support for him.

Welcome the people's champion.

See what Fed had to deal with all these years?

 

[icazares]

Eh the crowd only wanted more tennis

 

[AO13]

That's why he lost. He needed crowd against him lol

After all these years, he became accustomed to hostile crowd.

 

[tex123]

They clearly wanted him to win.

The people’s champion? Please. The crowd just wanted more tennis. If Djoker cries during the trophy ceremony are people going to make fun of him like they did Fed in 2009?

 

[tex123]

He was crying at changeover.

 

[megamind]

I think it was a beautiful moment for him, happy for him, despite the loss

 

[sandiegoman]

Everyone loves him now. Finally has the crowd behind him

Really funny post!

Keep dreaming, but stay off the drugs though, ok?

 

[bnjkn]

The crowd likes mental midgets.

Truly had to be emotional as he lost his biggest match ever but was getting the love he always wanted but never got.

The emotional ride. He had to feel good about the love being poured on him.

It is the most irony i have seen.

When crowds were against him, he won.

When crowds were there for him, he blinked.

Some of you guys are really stretching here. People paid big money. They were behind Med because he was the underdog. Then when the third set got embarrassing (and Novak was suddenly the "underdog") the crowd started cheering ridiculously for him.

Those cheers were of desperation. They wanted more tennis.

 

[BGod]

If he keeps going I agree he'll be clearly beloved. Part of that is by default because nobody outside of Tsitsipas & Shapovalov is getting much traction. But the other part is people will recognize nobody will come close to Big 3.

Novak will win at least 1 more USO.

lol they just wanted 5 sets or 4 sets at least

 

[tex123]

You can feel it in his words
That's all he ever wanted. Crowd support is off the charts. Not a bad way to go out. I don't think this loss will hurt him. He will sleep soundly.

That's the thing. I guess crowd being against him makes him play his best tennis.

He also had great support from the crowd for the RG 2016 final and he received a great ovation after the 2015 RG final

 

[smalahove]

Add to that, Med declared him the GOAT.

He earned the prize he deserves, but not the prize he needs right now

 

[tex123]

Think he just said that in the moment.
