Roland Garros / French Open 2023 [Men] - Grand Slam

[Fiero425]

He holds for now. He needs to take some huge cuts at the return to maybe jar Novak into overthinking the serve.

Didn't get a chance with 2 ACES by Novak!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Novak breaks to love and history is about to be made as he will serve for the match!

Ruud is on his way to having the Murray-esque 0-3 in major finals.

 

[Jelenafan]

Isn't the fat lady about to sing?

 

[tented]

10 points in a row for Novak.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Congrats Novak and congrats to Don Fabio and Nethmeth your boy too good and on another level and makes history!

 

[tented]

Congrats to Novak!

Congrats to Novak! Back to the drawing board for Casper. He needs to get some help on that backhand and work on staying aggressive during critical junctures of matches.

 

[Jelenafan]

Ruud is on his way to having the Murray-esque 0-3 in major finals.

He’s got 1 more to go to tie Ivan Lendl’s 0-4 Major finals start, I have faith Casper can do it!

Rafa's coming back next year to restore order to RG. He will win one final French Open, and a singles gold medal for good measure.

 

[Jelenafan]

Novak, impressive, wins the FO and is the only male player to win all 4 Majors at least 3 times each.

Rafa's coming back next year to restore order to RG. He will win one final French Open, and a singles gold medal for good measure.

I wonder if Rafa watched this match

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Yannick Noah will be handing out the trophies

Ruud is on his way to having the Murray-esque 0-3 in major finals.

This was the most of Ruud I've really seen all at once, and I was not especially impressed. Also, kind bored by it. There's nothing thrilling about his game.

 

[atttomole]

Congratulations to Djokovic. His first set was riddled with errors. In the third set, he shifted gears, and played imperially.

 

[Nadalfan2013]

I wonder if Rafa watched this match

I assume yes because Nadal already congratulated Djokovic on social media:

Thats our boy Rafa, would not expect anything less from him

 

[MikeOne]

Didn’t look great for a min in first set but casper failed to capitalize on a not at his best novak. Once novak locked in his high level from tie breaker on, it was over

casper ruud and carlos are players i really like, if novak had to lose to anyone, wouldt have been as bad if it were to any of these two

Whether you like novak or not, his mental strength, perseverance, dedication to his craft is second to none.
