I am glad to see that RAFA is back in business after that injury scare.

2 in one match , blisters and his racquet attacking him from the floor? lol!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

I cannot analyse this match at all
All I know is Rafa will play Gasquet next....hopefully with No Drama At All

What a long, strange trip that was!

You're dreaming! They won't be as good or have the longevity of the Big 3! These guys you love may have some success, but it'll be limited!

You're telling me that a Carlos Alcaraz who is 19 years old is not going to play into his late 30's . Come on. Jannik Sinner will even play into his 30's. Look at a player like John Isner who is 37 years old. His career may not be like Rafa, Federer, and Djokovic, but he is still playing. Even this guy tonight who is playing Rafa is pretty old. I guarantee you every single one of those players I mentioned above will play into their 30's unless they have some sort of injury. I am not saying they will have the same type of careers are Rafa, Roger or Novak, but they still will play that long.

I have other adjectives I should have brought drugs to give to Rafa fans if I knew we would be going to suffer like this lol!

What a long, strange trip that was!

It came from you underestimating the Italian! You had to know that talk would make Rafa's job harder!

Gasquet likely still Nadal's patsy.

Praise The Lord with that stat!

Not an easy match for Rafa, but he got the job done. I am off to bed now. Goodnight.

I’m glad that he was able to raise his level after being down to 2-6, 2-4! Solid tennis after that!

 

[Andy22]

Great comeback win by Nadal and did he really just hit himself in the nose with his own Racquet!.

Can't see Gasquet giving Nadal any trouble after 1st set! in the next round.

Hopefully Nadal gets same treatment for that nose .

Fognini always given Nadal hard time in their matches epic comeback as usual this season.

Fognini always given Nadal hard time in their matches great to epic comeback as usual this season.

That first set I must say was the worst set of tennis I have seen for Rafa in sometime, agree Fog always seems to raise his game against Rafa

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Rafa said " It's another opportunity, still alive after a match like this means a lot'

Upset alert: Nakashima up 2 sets over Dimitrov: 7-6, 7-5

Probably only 2 good picks I made to reach R3, Wu and Nakashima
