2022 ATP General News

How embarrassing for Nadal with 4 tournament wins while Djokovic has 3 playing less than half the season! Who doing better??

Played less than half? They both play 9 tournaments each so clearly you are clueless!

Whatever Djokovic missed due to his vaccine choice Nadal missed a similar amount because of his injuries:

38-5 + 4 titles (88.4%)
30-6 + 3 titles (83.3%)

Nadal wins.

Nadal had his best chance to win 3 majors in a season! Djokovic did it 3 times ('11,'15,'21)! He wasn't @ the AO or USO to stop him either!

Again injuries. He had to withdraw during Wimbledon because of injury and then barely played before the U.S. Open so he was rusty there.

Btw at the AO he beat Medvedev, you know the guy who trashed your guy in the previous hardcourt slam.

It’s amazing how despite being one year younger Djokovic has still managed to play 2 more slams than Nadal. That’s a total of 6 slams when you account for age. Yet Nadal despite all his bad luck and setbacks has managed to win more.

Go hug your boyfriend’s bronze medal or something.

Novak is playing some amazing tennis right now. I'll be surprised if either Silent K or Dani are up to the task.

His current match stats definitely look like he is playing extremely well. He likes it indoors (no wind) and he is hungry for some match wins. I hope he can add another title to his name.

Djokovic will lose in the SF. Medvedev is on fire.

Medvedev has to get past RBA first, who has a 4-1 winning record against the Russian.

There are plenty of threads in which to discuss GOAT. General News is not one of them. Thanks!

6-1, 6-1 Medvedev...

 

[Nadalfan2013]

Another solid straight sets win from Novak.

Meddy will demolish him. Novak has already booked his return plane tickets for tomorrow.

 

[Nadalfan2013]

Impressive win from Daniil. Should be a good SF tomorrow between the best actual two HC player.

Are you the clown who wrote Garin will beat Novak because he has better looking hair??

I didn't say he will beat him, I said that I'm rooting for him.

 

[the AntiPusher]

Of course! Nadal never loses a match unless he's hampered by injury or just plain exhausted from a long season! No one really defeats him!

By George.. I think you got it.. Nadal never looses unless he is jaded, the open roof at SW19 or playing on non US Open hardcourts vs Novak.. Fiero you are going to receive your temporary Nadal fan certificate once you pay your $500 registration fee made out to @kskate2 before the end of day. Dude. you have come a long way but you are gonna get there. jajaja

I think some assessments of Djokovic are a bit ridiculous. Novak started rough this year, but overall he has showed up to play where he has played and squandered very few opportunities. I would say the only place where he fell truly flat and had no answers was at RG against Nadal.

Yeah, yeah, a "fantasy thread" w/ all the make believe BS & "what ifs" that people fabricate in their heads! Makes sense to me!

That would be one epic thread.

I see the QF matches in Japan went rather quickly; Fritz didn't even have to play w/ a "walkover" due to Kyrgios WD! What's happened to Taylor? He's going 3 sets w/ LL's & other players supposedly not in his class! I think Denis should make quick work of him even w/ his inconsistencies!

 

[Fiero425]

I can't get over this draw for Astana! Only the #1 seed, Carlos missed out in the SF! #5 Rublev got there instead to play Stefanos! That match and the one with Djokovic and Daniil are huge for this new 500 event! Even China Open couldn't boast such a field!

 

[Nadalfan2013]

Let’s go Meddy! I will be asleep but when I wake up I expect to see that you have ended noletardism.

 

[tented]

Medvedev wins the first set 6-4, in just 39 minutes.

 

[kskate2]

Med is on fire today. Aside from that Djokosmash that didn't go over the net, he's been very effective in the forecourt. Djoke will need to come up w/ something extra special to get by Meddy today.
