Nadal defeat...........

Question

did he forget to take his 'medication' or something? lol just j/k

djokovic won 76% of 2nd serve points against nadal, and has a 4-1 record over murray, so will the final be another walkover for djokovic?

Answer 1

True. Djokovic shouldn't have much of a problem unless Murray returns and serves well. I also can't believe that Nadal lost his match. He was too tired I guess.

Answer 2

Yeah Djokovic is the moderate favorite but if Murray plays like he did last week and Djokovic has serving and forehand problems then don't be surprised if Murray can pull out the win in a tight match.  

Answer 3

Nadal hasn't beaten Djokovic on hardcourts since Indian Wells last year where Djokovic was playing in his first Masters series final. The last 4 times they played on hardcourts Djokovic has won easily not even dropping a set.

Djokovic knows how to beat Nadal on hardcourts the same way Nadal knows how to beat him on clay.

Djokovic is the overwhelming favorite to beat Murray. The only way Djokovic loses this match is if he is having an off day and Murray capitalizes.

Murray has never won a title this big before. Djokovic has the stronger hardcourt game and experience on his side going into this match

Answer 4

Rafa was outplayed by Novak for most of the match. Especially the first set Rafa couldnt get a chance at all, it would have helped if he could have served better ahaha! The second set was much closer and at times it looked like Nadal was playing the better tennis, it just wasnt to be. People have to remember Novak has had lots more time off to rest and prepare for hard season than what Rafa has. Nadal`s schedule has been hectic the previous months, he was winning all the tournaments....... So i do think tiredness contributed to his defeat a little bit againt Novak, however Djokovic simply was just playing better tennis and thats it ! lol Vamos Rafa the new #1  

Answer 5

Nadal is fine.  I do think Rafa was tired this time but the way Djokovic played I don't think Nadal would have won even if he wasn't.  Tired or not, Djokovic is better overall on hardcourts than Nadal.  I'm not even a Nole fan but he does shine on hardcourts.

Answer 6
