2017 US Open Final: Nadal vs. Anderson

[calitennis127]

Because Nadal is an excellent defender with almost infinite stamina and Federer did not construct his points aggressively enough with the forehand.

Excellent spinny first serve.

 

[calitennis127]

Fed's BH against Nadal was a weakness but it was something he could have worked around better. Instead he was so conservative with his FH that he made it obvious the BH was a weakness.

I'm think Roger made a deal with the :devilfinger: to take Rafa as easily as he did after AO! I'm still shaking my head!

 

[Moxie]

I can only apologize for my fellow NYers.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Awful missed overhead.

 

[Garro]

wow what a miss

 

[Moxie]

Toni is tense.

 

[Moxie]

Hi, Garro!

 

[calitennis127]

Well everyone.....time for me to go get some Indian food. Lamb vindaloo awaits. Congratulations to Nadal fans! I'm glad to see an old 31-year-old can still compete for titles. Enjoy your win but know that if Djokovic or Nalbandian were in this final playing their best, Nadal would be getting humiliated right now.

 

[Garro]

Hello there

 

[Fiero425]

That's why it's so hard to watch Rafa! His opponents get tired and forget how to play, missing shots that shouldn't be missed!

 

[brokenshoelace]

Nalbandian?! In a slam final?

 

[brokenshoelace]

It did happen once I guess

 

[Fiero425]

Just once maybe

 

[Moxie]

Cali, good to see you never change. Buon appetito. Come back to talk tennis soon.

 

[brokenshoelace]

That was a strange forehand from Nadal. I don't even know where he meant to put it. Is this the first time Anderson gets to deuce on Nadal's serve?

 

[Moxie]

And Fiero, why do you think that is? That their shitty play exists in a vacuum?

 

[brokenshoelace]

What a serve. He's been serving incredible

 

[Moxie]

And is coincidental?
