Nadal v Djokovic

What a match. One of the greatest ever.

Novak will easily surpass both Rafa’s and Roger’s slam record.

he’ll rightly go down as the greatest ever.
 
Gutted!!

I just can’t tolerate Djoker. Fingers crossed Tsitsipas can step up on Sunday. I highly
doubt it though.

I was thinking exactly the same earlier. What a player and to think he'll end up better than two true legends of sport too.
 
Novak 1/3 to beat Tsitsipas. He was 4/1 to win the tournament on Friday.

Was all over that price. He’s just incredible and 4/1 for the #1 to win the tournament at semi’s stage was ridiculous value. Understand it’s Rafa’s home but, Novak at 4/1 was just plain silly.

I think he was better than 4/1 in some places as well.

He will easily and undoubtedly go down as the greatest tennis player ever. Anyone who disagrees shouldn’t watch tennis.

I disagree and watch and play tennis as often as possible. There’s style and manner too, Djoker lacks class. I hope you lumped on at 4/1 and when he was two sets down today.

He wasn’t 4/1 at 2-0 down. Or at least I never saw him at 4/1. I remember him hitting 11/10 at 2-1 down. Even then I thought that was incredible value.

He may lack class compared to Rafa and Roger. But class or no class, he will go down as the greatest. No doubt about it.

I probably agree but it’s very fine margins between the 3 of them. With his injuries Nadal has been incredible.

Murray has done insanely well to get 3 majors in this era (also Stan)

Agree Rafa’s injuries have probably took him for taking that GOAT mantle, especially with the way he plays. He’s incredible. He’s actually my favourite player to watch.
However, to just look at what Novak has achieved, in this era, is just simply mesmerising. It’s an amazing achievement.
The greatest defender ever and the best tennis player ever.

Probably the only player even when 2 sets down you think he’s not in too much bother yet. Fitness is insane, I remember that alone beat Murray in some of their earlier meetings.
 
His mental part of the game is probably his biggest attribute. He never knows when he’s beaten. He has so much mental strength. Especially when he knows deep down he’s not as liked by the public as the other two greats.
 
Absolutely love the Fed,the way he plays oozes class,he's so graceful around the court.
I have to reluctantly agree with Marv regarding Novak,its hard to say otherwise really.

I think his physical fitness is up there as an important facet of his greatness.
