WTF Final: Djokovic vs Nadal

[Riotbeard]

Yes Murat.

 

[Denis]

it sure is, Novaks spring offensive I will call it

 

[Riotbeard]

It will be a while until novak gets no 1 even if when he defends the AO

 

[Garro]

Nice, crisp tennis from Novak today. Very well played. Rafa was a bit too defensive in returning and he paid for it. Can't wait for the Australian Open.

 

[Kieran]

I dont see him getting a chance until the US hards

 

[Kieran]

If at all

 

[Kieran]

anyhow, thats all future - this is now, great night for Nole!

 

[Moxie]

Thats the spirit, Kieran!

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

True Kieran

 

[nehmeth]

classy of Novak congratulating him for y.e. #1

 

[Kieran]

Im off to bed, my missus is forgiven, she aint no Jonah after all!

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

What does missus think about the long blond hair lineswomen of the world?

 

[Moxie]

Tell her we said thanks for taking one for the team.

 

[Denis]

[Kieran]

She doesnt know about her, Murat, thats my secret life! :heart

Enjoy!

Thank you! I certainly had a great day with both Novak and Fernando lifting big trophies the same day

this was pretty much expected. we said before the match that nadal is spent and playing very poorly.


more specifically, if he did not correct his return and his backhand, this was going to be a very tall order.

he missed all those forehands because he was not even moving his feet.

this is not the nadal you saw in montreal, cinci, and flushing meadows. his clay campaigns took a lot out of him too. he is just one man.

the man is worn out completely.


its a good loss as far as I am concerned. at least he knows he has work to do now if he wants his hands on the Australian open crown. this loss will force him to work harder and focus better in 62 days.

next slam is now just 62 days away.

 

[Riotbeard]

Well it was a great one!

 

[Riotbeard]

It was the type of classic a nole fan will enjoy for decades.
