The Day NADAL Won a Match After Being 5-1 40-30 Down

[@drvince0725]

Seriously he’s the only player I constantly keep seeing doing unbelievable comebacks almost frequently

[@Grainsworth]

To be fair, that is a Djokovic specialty, and Nadal has less comebacks from 2 sets to 0 in grand slams than any other member of the big 4, never mind big 3

[@anseinueseima408]

@@Grainsworth Djokovic's comeback always features players weaker than him, where he shouldnt even be 0-2 down, examples being Sinner wimbledon 2022 and Djere US open 2023. Nadal always comeback from way tougher conditions, either he hasnt played for long time or his opponent currently in better form. Nadal's comeback is always the most inspiring and unimaginable, whereas Djokovic's comeback is mostly his redemption of mistakes earlier in the match. People didnt praise Nadal as the gladiator for no reason.

He won the Australian open now after being 2 sets down 😳... 🐐

[@johnnyklasing4002]

I think this might be tougher because with this Medvedev only has to win 1 game to win the match, but in the Australian open the opponent would still have to win a full set to claim the victory. Regardless, both are incredible and show the determination of Nadal.

[@christian11111]

Incredible that he and Medvedev had two brilliant matches in the ATP finals where each came back from the brink of defeat. Medvedev paid back the favor in 2020 when Nadal won set 1 and serving for the match in set 2.

[@AnthonyHirsch]

@@z1az285 yeah that's true, it's almost like inverted versions of the same match, and in the AO final Nadal made another miraculous comeback against Medvedev and it's actually v similar to the US Open Final in 2019 for Medvedev except ofc Nadal actually completed the comeback.. It's funny , their whole head to head, five matches now, if u go backwards is almost completely inverted lol, if Medvedev wins the next match easily then their whole head to head front to back will basically be inverted: straight set victory by one, out of nowhere two sets to love come back in slam final to even it, and ATP finals comeback from nowhere two years back to back. doesn't mean anything and is obviously coincidental but kinda funny.

@@shaan8032 i know what you are saying but rafa just fought back ferociously in australia. i think he should have maybe won the second set, and he felt like he didn’t leave it all out there if he went in 3. for his own satisfaction, he upped his level, realized it’s working and went all the way. truly a special night but i wouldn’t say medvedev was influenced by events in 2020. he just gave rafa enough for him to capitalize ruthlessly.

Similar heroics in the 2022 Australian Open Final. Behind 2-0 sets, 2-3 and 0-40, in the 3rd.

[@solpalanpalani7206]

After watching all these years of tennis, it won't be wrong to say Nadal is the best ever in the tennis courts. Like the tactician Ali, in boxing, Nadal finds ways to beat his opponents. If not for his constant injuries, he would have won many more Grand Slams. If all the losses esp the semis and finals in the Grandslams, as have been noticed, were mainly due to lack of adequate or no training and preparation due to prior injuries. It is no joke to come back from the brink of defeat and win the match. How he did It? Australian Open 2022 is one prime example. Youngsters must learn from Nadal as how to recover from failure and make success in life.

Novak is also GOAT, lets not forget that the 3 of them have dominated so much all in one era. Theres 3 GOATs and its upto peoples opinions to decide who is their GOAT. However at the end of their careers, the numbers and statistics will most likely point towards Novak to be considered the all time greatest. Personally, Federer is always gonna be my favourite but im just stating facts here.

[@supermama1238]

@@yusufluhar5881 tend to agree a bit. but have to consider the opposition Rafa faced during his career. the first half, it was prime federer, and in the second half its the prime novak and he still succeeded in getting equal or more GS than them.

[@videowatcher93]

experience is everything. medvedev cracked under pressure. played well in the beginning and then began missing more shots as match point came close (you notice his strokes were getting sloppier two games to match point and he just stopped trying thinking he was going to get the win). Nadal's had far more wins and court time at higher level gameplay which means he's more consistent when it comes down to critical times. This comeback was great though. GJ nadal.

[@winterlogical]

I agree. I think part of what helped Medvedev in the US Open Final (besides that he is a very good player) was that Novak was equally under so much pressure and not playing his best tennis. This is not to discredit Medvedev - to win a grand slam in this era is an extremely difficult achievement. I just mean it helps when your opponent is under even more immense pressure to get a calendar slam lol! Also, Nadal leads the head to head with Medvedev 5 to 1 now so I wonder if there's something about Nadal's resilience and refusal to be put down that Medvedev has a hard time overcoming.

[@videowatcher93]

@@winterlogical Nadal's mental game is very hard to crack. Even more so back in his prime years ago when he had both agility and strength. The current stars are great but I grew up with djokovic, federer, roddick, sharapova, williams, etc. To me, those are still my most fav [best players in a sense].
