ATP Finals 2020;Thiem vs Nadal best Straighter of all time

Not the best of all time but a really good match, I also think of Federer Djokovic ATP Finals 2012 final, impressive straight setter.​@@TheKing-wf9es

@@flaviencrozier You are probably right

And the worst part has to be the fact thiem isn't capable of rediscovering his best game. The sport ran right past him during his struggles with injury, I feel. A bit like hewitt😅

And Rafa probably dosnt even have level now for 250s

​@@Andres-qm1xx Well you should watch today's match then

@@ForrealIam-is6jj thiem will smash him

Well,prince of king can only be Novak

sinner might be competition to that now but prime thiem was something else

@@Conitorsinner hits flatter tho, Domis top spin heavy forehands were just too good

@@Johnmili4565ye ik but we’re talking abt who hits harder not necessarily who’s ball is harder to get and get a quality shot back

@@Johnmili4565His backhand was so powerful too, he was practically unfazed by high balls even with a one hander. His only disadvantage was the return; he improved it in 2019 and especially 2020 but it still held him back at times.

"Del Portro entered the chat"

He was one generation ahead of them 24-27 in those years whereas Meddy, Tsitsi, Sasha were 3 to 5 years younger. Just like Alcaraz, Rune, Shelton and Sinner are now 3-5 years younger. We will have to see how they play at their peak in 3-5 years.

Unfortunately, he had NO CHANCE in the final at RG...

Thiem never had a surgery in his whole career.Please get your facts straight.

@@Sergio_Gonzales6 Indeed, my mistake. Still I understand he got injured on the wrist.

@@iansmirna5183 yep and it has nothing to do with his downfall which lasts almost 2 years now and began way before his injury.Of course in the beginning of his comeback Thiem lacked confidence in his wrist and had worries in the back of his mind not really crushing the balls as he used to do, because of this worries.There was no physical pain or hindrance in any way, just the lack of confidence in his wrist.This situation lasted for about 2 months. I heard many interviews an press conferences from him in german and english where he described his true problems, lack of confidence and motivation in training and competition, which lasted almost 1,5 years like he stated.It is really hard to get this time back he lost and surpasses his wrist injury by far.It is ridiculous that people still take his wrist as a reason for his performances the last almost 2 years.Ok they just don't know better.But I can assure you and all the others who just watch his matches, that his wrist is a 100% ok and not causing any problems since April 2022!

Tennis tv is ATP only, they don’t have rights for grand slams

I don’t think you can include Alcaraz’s generation in that group. The jury is still out on Rune and Sinner, but Alcaraz has 2 slams and 5 Masters, which is already a HOF career, and he’s only 20.

@@SJ-di5zu Alcaraz is an exemption from the rest, but then again he won it in a cakewalk field. Beating a 36yo Đoković should be mandatory for him and anyone young enough who wants to transcend. Let's see what it becomes from Rune and Sinner.

@@masters.1000 Đoković at 36 is at his best level ever, he said it himself.

@@domagojhrgovic7419clearly u haven’t watched his last levels

@@domagojhrgovic7419 ¿At his BEST? My god, have you watched anything before or just started this year. Of course he will say that, or do you expect him to say "I'm so lucky that Federer was 6 years older and retired, Nadal is injured and no one good enough appeared in the last 15 years"
