In 2012 Nadal finally beat djokovic after 7 final lost. You can hear how much matter for him from his last roar after the ace

[@Hacker-rx1vn]

I love watching Djokovic-Nadal old matches than watching new guys

[@SamgorasGD]

Nadal in montecarlo was a beat, even peak Federer couldn't beat him in 2006 or 2007. Djokovic beat him TWICE in a row. Spectacular the Nadal's reign in montecarlo.

[@mosab.2815]

Federer faced Nadal at the height of Nadal's superiority on clay courts Federer is 5 years older than Nadal, while Djokovic was able to defeat Nadal, and Nadal was not as aggressive on clay as he was from 2005 until 2010 or until 2012. Djokovic is one year younger than Nadal

[@adityasarang5755]

Lol. Please stop with the age gap. 1yr age difference has no impact whatsoever. 2015 was Nadal's worst year for sure but 2013 Nadal made it to the finals and was playing well..He even won the French..Djokovic was just better. Federer no doubt had his chances but didn't take it. That's it. Nothing to do with age there either when you are 25 in 2006, greatest and winning against everyone but Rafa on Clay. Just accept it fellas.

[@thememoryremains23]

@@adityasarang5755Nadal never reached his peak again n masters 1000 That only said the stupid noletards Like you said Nadal wins the FO in 2013 beating Djokovic in semifinals So Nadal was better that year or you forget the us open final 2013 ?? Hahahaha never beat a Rafa prime in clay never But Rafa can beat a prime Nole in hard court in grand slam not a masters 1000

[@sourasubhaghosh2962]

it is remarkably understated how good a clay court player Djokovic is. Except nadal he is almost unbeatable. Almost all his FO losses are against Nadal. It seemed like nadal only had to win the djokovic match to win the FO.

[@heizeking3557]

so true, Novak's clay game is so underrated

[@justchillin6314]

Facts, if Nadal hadn’t have existed Djokovic would have at least 8 clay slams. Djokovic is definitely the second best clay player of all time, it’s just been overshadowed because of Nadal.

[@bryceswartz8657]

@@justchillin6314idk about Novak being the 2nd best of all time, maybe thiem? Just my thought, bc look at head to head thiem vs Novak on clay.

[@justchillin6314]

@@bryceswartz8657 Bro Djokovic literally has the second most amount of clay titles. I know Borg won more RG’s than Djokovic, but Borg didn’t have Nadal to deal with. Djokovic still has more clay titles overall though, so if we are going off the stats then yes, Djokovic is the second best, but don’t get me wrong prime Thiem was a monster on clay, he just wasn’t consistent enough and unfortunately got injured.

[@justchillin6314]

@@bryceswartz8657 Well maybe not the second best winningest player on clay, as Djokovic is 10th on the list for overall clay titles, but prime Djokovic was the biggest challenge for Nadal on clay who is of course the best ever on clay, so yes, in terms of clay success Djokovic isn’t the second best, but at his peak he was capable of beating anyone. In 2011 Djokovic defeated Nadal in 2 back to back clay masters finals which was just unprecedented. As for Thiem? Well Roddick had a 5-4 h2h against Djokovic, but was Roddick a better player than Djokovic? No, so you can’t take much from Thiem leading the h2h against Djokovic on clay. They didn’t play many times on clay, but don’t get me wrong, prime Thiem was a monster on clay, it was just unfortunate he got injured and wasn’t the same after that.

[@TopEveryThing-yi3py]

Only Player to defeat Prime Nadal on Clay and only player who can Stay with nadal on clay 🫡

[@kakashihatake1029]

The man who made clay seasons at least remotely competitive

[@thememoryremains23]

Hahaha stupid he never beat a prime Nadal Nadal can loses with every player in masters 1000 clay season Even zverev wins against him and Roger Never beat a prime Nadal at Roland Garros never Stupid

[@thememoryremains23]

He never stay Nadal on clay He only beat a injured Nadal in 2016 and 2021 Look the 2022 Roland Garros match 😂 Nadal at his 80% beat Novak in Roland Garros Noletard

[@kakashihatake1029]

@thememoryremains23 now look at 2011, 2013, 2014 too. Keep coping lil bruh. Roland Garros isn't the only clay tournament. And even if you only care about RG, beating him twice there has only been achieved by Djokovic. That's saying something. Also get your facts right. Djokovic didn't beat Nadal in 2016. He beat Nadal in 2015 which was a Nadal who was playing tournament after tournament. Why? Because he was healthy. Just not in great form. 2021 was one of the best matches ever at RG

[@TheBlbounek]

You can see perfectly, that Novak got better and better on clay. Looks like he was more a more agressive

[@Laland_1196]

He didn't ..their last match in Monte Carlo is unfortunately in rafa worst year 2015..if they met in 2017,2018,2021 Monte Carlo it's a different story

[@bubufubu]

@@Laland_1196 This. Nadal suffered with a lack of confidence in 2015 due to injuries he sustained in the latter half of 2014. Up to that point, 2015 was his worst year on tour.

[@ntl219]

Absolutely, Novak is an aggressive attacker on clay. His forehand improved as he got better ball timing and took those early shot with excellent racket head acceleration. He struggles with clay are weird bumps, wind and wet clay.

Almost bittersweet to be watching these insane highlights in the wake of the announcement that Rafa has withdrawn from Monte Carlo and it's pretty much assured that we're not gonna see him compete here again! *sigh*

The Best rivalry in the History of Tennis

[@Gounemporos]

Nadal was a Pusher for sure . Djokovic try to be aggressive but nadal returned everithing he bit him cause he was a wall.after that Djoko made him self better and better mentally mostly as a ROCK

[@AlanRR121]

Thats not ‘often’ 😂

[@Nostalgic14-zo3pk]

@@AlanRR121 Often here means few coz that is how great Rafa is on Clay literally unbeatable...So beating him a couple of times on Clay constitutes to beating other players multiple times😂...We can never see anyone being this dominant on 1 particular surface....I am die hard Nole fan but Nadal on Clay is a monster...Sad that we re seeing these 2 GOATS in the last leg of their careers...Nole has no motivation and Rafa is just back from injury

Ahora lo increíble y raro es que Nadal nunca estaba cansado en terribles peloteos😮, que tomaba?? Todo muy raro..

[@AlejandroGarcia-wz1qi]

Era una bestia física, hasta que las lesiones lo fueron mermando cada vez más. Desde 2015 tuvo que modificar su estilo de juego para seguir en la élite. Comenzó a correr menos y a acortar los puntos.

[@mosab.2815]

Also, when we are in the year 2024, we say what is Djokovic doing? He won 3 Grand Slam titles in the 2023 season and he is 36 years old. In fact, Djokovic definitely started using drugs when he felt that his end was near after the end of the 2016 season. Therefore, the 2017 season and half of the 2018 season were disastrous for Djokovic, as he began using steroids at that time.

[@ValentinG23]

fun fact, in more than a decade Nadal hasn’t even won a set against Novak on hardcourts while in the same period Novak beat him 5 times on his beloved clay , so it’s fair to say that Novak handles Nadal better on clay than Nadal handles Novak on hard !!!

[@Laland_1196]

They played 7 combined matches in rafa worst year even in clay also from 2015-16 ..they played only 3 matches in nole worst year 2017-18 ..so it's fair to say djoke is lucky that he didn't met him in hardcourts in that years..rafa has courage to meet him in clay in his worst years but djoke didn't have that

[@bubufubu]

Completely lacking in context. Hmm. I wonder why that is. 🤔

[@MarkTomeh]

@@Laland_1196lol you're ridiculous.

[@kakashihatake1029]

​@Laland_1196 Rafa didn't have the courage to meet him outside of clay very often though. We all know about the infamous 2019 Paris and 2022 Wimbledon "ah shit I better scram or it's over" withdrawals. As well as the numerous Australian open ducks on top of many other tournaments. In case you say "he's injured bla bla" lets not forget that he also ducked federer at the 2019 Iw semi. As well as 2017 Shanghai where he played but claimed that he injured his knee in the semifinal. And yet one can very clearly see Nadal smack his own knee with his racket during that semifinal

[@bubufubu]

@@MarkTomeh No, that would be Djokovic fans who are ridiculous.

​@@KeshHereYeah right: winning AO, IW, Montecarlo and Rome was such a shit

[@andrewlegare6032]

Yea 2014 after the AO up to Basel in 2015 was Nadal’s worst part of his career. Federer and Djokovic have also had their bad years before getting back to the top. Federer’s worst was 2013 and Djokovic’s worst was after the French Open 2016 to Wimbledon in 2018. Djokovic almost quit then

No I don't think so. Sinner and Alcaraz are pretty damn good.

[@justchillin6314]

Not even close, go back and watch the 2012 AO final between Djokovic and Nadal, Alcaraz and Sinner have come nowhere close to emulating that level and consistency of quality throughout a match, but that’s because the big 3 were a phenomenon, a once in a 1000 year occurrence. Tennis isn’t supposed to be how it’s been for the past 20 years, that’s why it’s a miracle we witnessed this over 20 years. It’s only now tennis is getting back to normal again.

these both are the best tennis players forever. It such a pity Nadal cannot accept Djokovic is slightly stronger than him so a good connection between both is not possible. Nadal and Djokovic = perseverance in extremis. We will never forget this guys.

[@cbmtrx]

You know what though? I've been watching Nadal-Federer matches on clay and they are fkn TEN times more interesting to watch than this stupid baseline crap. It's a workout video with a trophy for the guy who hits the last shot. I mean kudos to your trainers but this is a snore.
