2019 Roland Garros Men's Final: Rafael Nadal vs. Dominic Thiem

[mrzz]

ot clock is for the start of the point

 

[Moxie]

Not between first and second, Murat.

 

[Front242]

There's that for a start re Roger

 

[rafanoy1992]

I mean he won a major at age 36.5...

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

There should be...Not particularly talking about this match.

 

[atttomole]

Roger can no longer sustain the physical level of his mid 20's. That has been clear for years.

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Well. Nadal still too good. Doesn't give away enough points. Thiem still a lot to learn and improve. But... maybe only here. Against Nadal. Elsewhere, even against Nadal, a lot of Nadal's advantages here would be non existent or at least muted or less effective. So on other surfaces, Thiem may be able to win.

 

[mrzz]

Nice way to try to change the subject, Murat

 

[mrzz]

since the actual match has clearly shown not to be able to

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

What is the subject? I am at work

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Though, on other surfaces Djokovic or Fed would be able to deal with him better. As well as Zverev and Tsitsipas and other guys.

 

[mrzz]

Federer

 

[Bonaca]

Im out, kind regards to all of you. I’m that f*** disappointed , the longer I watch this , the more it hurts. What final could that be?

 

[tenisplayrla08]

If he can keep it to one break though... he can at least feel like it's not quite over.

 

[DarthFed]

It is about body of work at advanced age (30's)

 

[backhandslapper]

DarthFed yes, but thats because Nadal, Djokovic and Murray were peaking. if there was a five year junior out there at their talent level who was 26 at the moment, they would be just as irrelevant as Roger appeared then

 

[mrzz]

can't belive he missed that

 

[DarthFed]

Murray peaking...that's funny. Anyways you could look over his major losses those years and a lot were to scrubs

 

[tenisplayrla08]

UGH!

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Bad drop shot but got back into it and then missed that shot. Oy.
