I dont see his usual constant pressure he puts on opponents and he is not serving that well.
Also i have the feeling he isnt 100% fit. Looks tired.
I hope i am not right. We will see.

He is not tired. The only reason he is not dominating is because his return of serve is bad to average. If this was Novak or Federer, Nick would have been broken already this set.

NIck's going to win TB but Rafa will come back and win sets 4 and 5. NK is so used to TB this AO.:)

Well good quickish win for Zverev. Don't look now but he's making the quarters of slams easier now. Give him that baseline and the semis and finals and titles will come. I'm still not a fan so I don't care if he does. I'd almost rather he didn't. But it'll be nice to see him live up to his potential and put to rest the questions that have arisen about him.

say when was the last time that happen in TB. If at all ?
Just signs of the tension. They don't much like each other and both trying to behave. It's gotta come out somewhere.

With this level Nadal is showing right now, i dont give him a chance against Thiem or Novak. Not even against the fake swiss.

I was the first to say Nadal won't make the final but it's a stretch to say he doesn't have a chance against anyone, let alone Thiem.

Mox a belated happy new year to you. I reckon that stuff has been more of media beat-up. NK really respects Nadal.
