September 9, 20196 yr it's funny how everyone goes nuts over these shots when it used to happen all the time before the rackets changed the game

September 9, 20196 yr Nadal has let guys come back from two breaks down several times this tournament. Time to stop that streak now.

September 9, 20196 yr Just now, Bullneck said: Now do what Fed should have done at Wimbledon: try an ace on both serves. That was close enough. Edited September 9, 20196 yr by Bullneck
September 9, 20196 yr well deserved. unreal effort from both guys. happy for Rafa though. amazing final.
September 9, 20196 yr The award presentation is on ESPN2. They'll have to interrupt a football game for it.
September 9, 20196 yr That was insane. Wimbledon and now this... wow. Medvedev going to lead the pack post-big three
September 9, 20196 yr First time I have ever thought Rafa looked nervous in a final. With that said, VA-MOTHERFUCKING-MOS!!! You have to think he has better than a 50/50 chance of being tied at 20 after next year’s French.
September 9, 20196 yr I've always been a HUGE Nadal fan, but the 3-4 times that he held up his racket and stopped play literally on Medvedev's toss because there was still a murmur or two in the crowd was some bitchassedness. Medvedev was playing super fast and not giving much time for the crowd to settle before serving, but, if it's bothering you, you go to the chair umpire and ask him to try to silence the crowd earlier, before Medvedev even gets to the line. You don't repeatedly stand up at the last possible second because, god forbid, it's not dead silent. The umpire should have counted some of those serves. That aside, I'm thinking it's a near certainty that Nadal retires with more majors that Federer. 25 seems extremely doable. 5 more French Opens between now and 40, maybe one more U.S. or Australian.
