Credit to Rafa, he played lights out on this day. As a Nole fan, this performance was puzzling especially given how he turned the 2nd set around. He just wasn't able to get into any sustained rhythm this match, of course due to Rafa's relentless aggression and pinpoint precision. Still a fantastic encounter by the two Legends. Only shame was that it was a QF. Would have loved another finals clash. Hope to see Rafa at his best in Australia. Savouring another Grand Slam showdown between the two!

So many excuses. 2021 he was moving like a cat in the first set and nearly bageled Djokovic. Then suddenly he becomes “injured” when he starts losing. What about 2009? He’s the CLOSEST thing to unbeatable in history at RG. But not unbeatable, no one is.

Lmao you Nadal fans are great at post Christmas jokes and fairy tales. We appreciate the laughter and copium that you give everyone, cos the truth is always starring you right in the face but you just refuse to acknowledge it. Buddy, I get it, you are a Nadal fan boy who can’t accept that his idol could ever lose healthy on his best surface, but unfortunately he did pal. Hate to burst your orange bubble, but Novak dismantled Nadal the previous year here. Nadal was not injured, he got injured in the tournament he played post RG, but against Novak he was fine for the entire match, to say he wasn’t is just your ways of coping more.

[@cdauga]

@@justchillin6314For information, 2021, Absent at IW, Cincinnati, Rafa plays with his bandaged foot at RG and has this bandage removed after the 3rd set, he operates following and stops his season, absent at Wimbledon, Olympics, USO and Masters and some would like to make us believe he was in great shape at RG. 2022, Rafa plays with an anesthetized foot throughout the tournament, he comes out of a match in 5 sets lasting more than 4h20 against FAA. Djoko is not injured, given favorite to RG after a half in Madrid and victory in Rome, in full confidence, he prefers to play at night because he does not like the heat and he knows that Rafa's lift is less good and they want us to believe that Djoko lost because he was weak, clowns!!!!

I always felt this tournament was the perfect moment for him to retire... It really took a toll on him, he was never the same player after RG 2022... Lots of injuries, father time, lack of focus and preparation for 2023... But here we are, he's in Brisbane and he wants to try again, one last time. What I really hope is he TRULY takes care of his health this time and if another injury occurs, I don't think it's worth to continue anymore. He has a long life ahead.

When the Djokovic Nadal 2021 full match Will come out?

[@beats4hobner]

Last half an hour, Djokovic looked forlorn, at a loss of ideas and spraying shots all around the court. Clay court plays directly into Rafa's hands. The little adjustments he makes, constantly making short steps, gives him control over uneven bounces in clay. On the other hand, Djokovic is unable to use his plasticity on clay courts as he runs the risk of sliding over the slippery dirt and getting injured in the process. It's therefore a very different story on hard courts, specially indoor ones.
