ATP Cup, Australia

Nadal's backhand is not particularly pretty, but when he is not feeling confident (as today), it is one of the ugliest shots in tennis.

Nadal is pissed about the disgusting Serbian fans, he should ask Novak how to handle this. Novak is experienced , he is treated like this often, remember Wimbledon.

Hi my friend, didn’t see you here around a long time.
Happy healthy new year.
So after a while we see our favourites playing each other in a match that counts for h2h and atp-points.
What do you think about tomorrow is more likely?
Nadal raises his level that much to beat Novak or Novak could resist his power? Tight 3setter ?
I think it will go the whole distance with rallies better than we saw today against Daniil. May the better win , they both are great!

I'm a bit late replying but yes happy new year to you as well as for the match Djokovic is already winning in first set and should end nadal in the 2nd nadal just looks really tired in this event playing with low energy but who do you think will win the atp cup overall?.

Yes and Novak is brutally showing that. In total control right now.

 

[Bonaca]

Wow three aces in a row. Wow.

 

[mrzz]

I am starting to like this tournament. I get to see Nadal losing almost every day!

Yes you are right. Nadal isn’t in top condition.
I m sure after Robertos win, Spain will take it in the doubles.

This is almost a repeat of the AO from last season! Nole is completely dominating this match! He's now acing Rafa at will; 3 in a game!

 

[Bonaca]

Wow what service game of Novak for 1:1. Imagine him serving like that regularly in combination with his baseline game!

I was thinking the same. But it’s not over yet.

 

[Fiero425]

I was thinking the same. But it’s not over yet.

Rafa's resorting to serve and volley points to stem the tide of this tsunami!

 

[Bonaca]

Woooow what a rally, this is what I want to see from both!

 

[Bonaca]

Novak couldn’t keep his insane level of the first set, now it’s a equal fight.

Honestly his level was fine, but not more than that. It was amplified by an extremely poor display from Nadal.

 

[mrzz]

Finally a point worthy of these two.

 

[mrzz]

Ok, this game has been pretty good.

 

[Fiero425]

Finally a point worthy of these two.

Boy was Rafa lucky to hold serve! That was going to be it and he had to save a couple break points to stay in the match!

 

[mrzz]

Nadal is serving extremely well (as is Djokovic, obviously).

 

[Bonaca]

He making more UFE and serving not so good. Both is connected

How many aces has Djokovic made? 200?
