2017 US Open Final: Nadal vs. Anderson

[calitennis127]

I was saying that Nadal was not bad in that match.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Actually Cali, when it comes to Novak, he reversed the H2H exactly because Nadal turned to shit in 2015/2016. Why did he never lead the H2H before that?

 

[Moxie]

That's my point, BS.

 

[calitennis127]

Because Nadal got a big head start with clay wins early on.

 

[Fiero425]

Rodgers finally ran for a 1st down!

 

[Moxie]

OK, overreaction. Nadal held.

 

[rafanoy1992]

BS, Nadal's placement on serve in this tournament has been amazing

 

[brokenshoelace]

But they still went back and forth even in Novak's best years. After he dominated Nadal in 2011, Nadal came back and won 6 out of 7, Except Nadal was so awful in 2015 and 2016 he had no chance against Novak. If you disregard the early Nadal wins, you gotta disregard the late Novak wins

 

[calitennis127]

Also, I think Moya being in Nadal's camp has helped.

 

[Fiero425]

That Fognini match was truly ugly, but at least Nadal got embarrassed by dropping a 2 set lead!

 

[brokenshoelace]

Agreed about Moya

 

[calitennis127]

Moya is one of my favorite all-time players.

 

[calitennis127]

Incredible forehand.

 

[calitennis127]

Moya hit one forehand against Federer in the 2003 Masters Cup in Houston that I will never forget.

 

[rafanoy1992]

See! Nadal blocked the 1st serve and he won the point!

 

[Moxie]

Moya was the inevitable addition. Great time to bring him in.

 

[Fiero425]

..and one People's mag top hotties!

 

[calitennis127]

Why do Americans suck at tennis?

 

[Moxie]

Indeed, Fiero.

 

[calitennis127]

Because by and large only American nerds play tennis.
