The Biggest UPSET Ever in Tennis: Nadal vs Söderling (Roland Garros 2009)

[@tennisslams9363]

This match is truly incredible and although it’s talked about, it still seems underrated. Rafa was 31-0 at Roland Garros, had won 4 slams, had beat Federer all 4 times and Novak thrice, never lost 2 sets in a match and had only lost 7 sets in his run. And then Soderling comes along and blows him out. Funny thing was it wasn’t a fluke, he out Nadaled-Rafael Nadal. It’s almost annoying watching Nadal play because he’s too dominant, manages to get everything on his forehand side as he wides up for a cannon down the line. Soderling did that same strategy to him, managed to get in the right place and just blast the forehand, Nadal always has others chasing his shots and trying to stay alive in the rally while Soderling had Nadal doing that to him! An incredible victory and although Soderling never won a slam he will always have the first win over Nadal at RG and the only win over Nadal at RG in his prime.

To some Rafa fans, you may just be told that Rafa was injured that's why he lost to Soderling.🤷🤷🤷

[@waynepinnock5874]

That's always the narrative with Nadal. He loses cos he was injured. Rather than he was outplayed to the degree where he undermined his physical capabilities and became injured

[@feth7747]

El partido de su vida, despues.... Nahhh

[@Esdru221]

Don't forget Nadal was injured almost all 2009 and it was his worst season since 2004 to now. He only was un shape during the AO because is during January and that was 2008 Nadal basically

[@travisbickle5279]

Everybody saw today, that the weather heat is the biggest opponent from novak. He beat even the king of clay in the nightsession in paris. Thats why i says everytime= Djokovic biggest opponent is always the weather Wind/sun

[@frenchbaguette2856]

@@luishd5343 No, he's right. Novak did à great match but conditions were hard for Nadal (good adaptation from Djoko tho). And Nadal hurts himself during the second set...

[@jeansioufi9046]

if anything conditions were much more suitable for novak. May I remind u it was night session? Night session, Ball bounce shrink.

[@rudygeo6803]

allora nadal ,arrivava sempre in ritardo ,giocava corto ,e non erai l nadal che a roma lo stesso anno diede 60 61 a soderling ,era un nadal inguardabile ,notate gli appoggi di nadal aveva paura sempre di appoggiare il ginocchio sinistro ,non lo appoggiava mai dando spinta alla palla ,ma lo usava solo come appoggio ,spingeva semnza forza sulle gambe ,mentre a roma era il nadal a 15 centimetri dalla linea di fondo ed arrivava in anticipo sulla palla ,soderling gioco meglio a roma che al rg ,ma nadal era diverso ,infatti non ando ne a wimbledon e torno agli us open

soderling es un tio nefasto y mala persona.

Yawn, Rafa beat the exact same player in the final the following year, and think of all the other players he's beat since then, long forgotten I doubt even he cares anymore
