It would interesting to see on which player will get their request granted by the organizers.
Indeed....I hoping it is a day match lol! though remembering in 2020 the conditions were heavy in the final during the day
Personally, I'm not happy about that. I can't imagine that Rafa didn't have input, and that it wouldn't be that he stated other preference. 13x champion should have his choice, IMO, and I bet this wasn't it.
Rafa did request a day match...I answered that on the RG post to you a few minutes ago
Then, if that is the case, the RG tournament directors suck. They're venal, and disrespectful of he guy that won it 13 times. It's a bloody QF. I don't care who he's playing. He should have the right to call it.
Wow.. that's great news meaning he is feeling great. I would think he worked on his serve and CC BH. PERFECT EXCELLENTE ! VAMOS SENOR RAPHAEL!
I always think after a match, next day it is advisible to have a light hit up,Rafa was on court for over 4 hours,he will probably have a long practice session tomorrow.
I hope and know that he is not going to relax against Sascha. A quick kill is better for all of us. Those two games that lasted 28 mins was mentally exhausting to watch for a viewer. Yes it was great theater but too much.. some of the so called experts think last years semi final clash was a better match. I disagree.
Well at the beginning of the match between Rafa and Novak both players were throwing everything at each other including the kitchen sink, when I watched the replay I thought hells bells which player is going to run out of energy first,then Rafa seem to get the upper hand.I think Rafa and his team will know the right tactics against Sasha.I also watched Alcaraz v Sasha match, what the hell was the Kid thinking of going to Sasha's bhand time after time? Brain Fail, attack Sasha's fhand which can break down in a match.
I have been holding back.. but this board had anointed Carlos as the chosen One or I made the poor statement by calling him Baby Rafa. Carlos is gonna be a great champion and will win numerous titles hopefully GSs but he is no Nadal. Carlos thinks he can hit through anyone which is how most youngsters think. He will eventually figure it out from what he learned from loosing to Sascha. I really was very impressed with Felix. I think he knows how to make it to the 2nd week of a slam and try to advance further.(I'm gonna be honest, Felix had no business loosing to Senor Matteo at Wimbledon last year because FAA has a much better game than him at this point in their careers.)..Just my opinion.
