Going Commando Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Feels like Zverev is getting a little cautious as he approaches this set point. Tsitsipas is hanging it out there for him to crush it down the line but he isn't taking those shots. Wants a long rally, I guess he thinks Tsitsipas is losing his legs.

abdcskins Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Fantastic match. Hope Joker and Nadal can match it. I feel like Rafa might mop the court though. I like how the French Open doesn't have a fifth set tiebreaker. Let em play it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going Commando Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Djokovic had him in that first game and let him off the hook, and has since been bum-rushed. Nadal is playing incredible and he's been super aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but he's drawing blood and getting his timing down. That'll help him in the next one. He made a lot of unforced errors in this set and Nadal has been particularly aggressive plus he's making Nadal shots that just blow your mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 That was a little bit of a dangerous moment there for Nadal when Djokovic got him to deuce. Could have been a big momentum shift there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 A couple of unforced errors from Nadal in that last game. First time it's felt like he hasn't been sharp today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdcskins Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Fantastic match. Rafa kinda fell apart in that fourth set, but literally every point leading up to that was on the edge. There were like 15 shots where I was like wow how did he win that (both players). The effort by both players was astounding. I thought they were both smashing the ball. Honestly my favorite part of the match was when they announced they would let the fans stay past the curfew. I got tears in my eyes. I speak French and understood immediately. Hard to explain why I was so moved....I think it was the high level of the match at that point, but mostly the world getting over Covid and the officials recognizing the special nature of the moment. It was inspiring. I get choked up thinking about it right now. Sports man.....gotta love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
