@M what are u talking about, no one cares about some popularity contest lmao nobody even brought up soccer, why does any tennis fan give a flying fuck if soccer is a popular sport?

Tennis is the best sport for gambling

@@shirinl.9724 Damn bro, such stupidity, it's unheard of

You can never know what happens in the next set. Never give ur opponent the momentum

That is because he is a champion.

Even if Nadal did end up losing the 3rd set I'd be willing to bet prolonging set 3 would play to his advantage anyway. I'd easily bet on Nadal to keep form longer than his opponent so making him work harder to win the set helps him.

Method to the "madness", don't give a single point easy. Genius in simplicity

I remember watching this match with my father. We were talking about how rafa should sell the set, about he could just get fueled out fighting like that in a clear lost set. I also remember, how, slowly he came back and won the set, my father and me just couldnt believe It. Ill always remember that match.

He did just that against Schwartzman in RG 2020

Yeah partly because of all his nervous tics and stalling.

He demolished Djokovic in RG 2020 in straight sets..but still spent 2 hrs 45 mins on the court😂

@@hesch-tag Hardly, you forgot there is a 24 sec clock now, plus clay has a higher shot per point total about 4 to 5 .

@@KeyofDavid5778 Yes I know it's just that all his antics annoy the hell out of me.

Maybe he didn't realize it wasn't 4th set😅

A 4th set could have been shorter than that long come-back from 5-1, but winning in straight sets looks better on paper

@@tarjji Yeah but Nadal isn't so overconfident on clay that he'd just toss the man a set giving him a chance to come back. At the end of the day his opponent is still a professional Tennis player so why take the risk of giving him a set? Rafa fights for every point.

Not Novak, he rages too much, and early in his career he was a disaster. Nadal and Federer are in another world physically and mentally

​@@ferst262Federer is a mental midget that shits the bed when it matters. Novak is far above him mentally

@@ferst262 Relax weirdo. Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic are all incredible class acts who have reached the pinnacle of tennis in the modern era in a way no one else ever has. I love them all and will remember them all for inspiring me.

Retired completely

No he’s not. Nole is the goat.

La del open australia de 2022 fue bestial y la de la copa de maedtros con mevdeved perdua 5-1y 40 -0 y gano el partido

Not really... You kinda get a few hit points back if you win the game

Well not really regarding that he leaded with 2 Sets anyways, its still impressive and Nadal is my favorite but if you are 2 Sets behind its actually easier to deal with it, but he is the one who could have turn it around as well

Just for reference, that was an inside in forehand.

unless you're Nadal on clay. then it's like using game shark

There’s a famous fighting video game moment called EVO moment #37 with a guy playing Street Fighter like Rafa played this match.

nope he is not he lost last RG in 2021 and only won australian open because of djokovic absense. however as of now the goat is nadal, however he is NOT better now than back in his prime

@@ChrisE-iy7ok I can respect your response. Of course, Rafa was physically better back then, but I feel like he’s added a little more variety & different strategies to his game, now that he’s older. As for losing RG 2021, it happens. As for winning AO 2022 cuz Djok wasn’t there, I don’t think it’s fair to minimize that win. The situation has been reversed on many occasions. Rafa has missed slams that Djok won but that doesn’t make Djok’s wins less impressive. In both scenarios, Rafa & Djok had to win 7 matches to be the champion. Respect should be given to BOTH of them for being the phenomenal champions that they are.

@@ChrisE-iy7ok ha....he just beat Djokovic and other 4 of the top 9 seeded players and won another RG while playing with one foot asleep......king of comebacks and the king of making guys like u eat your own words for a reason.....Nadal is the GOAT....period

@@manunarine3529 why are you replying this to me? nadal is my favourite player don´t get it twisted lol. Nadal would´ve had 30 plus slams now if not for the syndrome he have in his foot since he was a teenager

Try a bit harder 😃

Pete Sampras is.

@@davidgivins4203 LOL

@@davidgivins4203 why Sampras?

@@fabriciopucheta8109 what chance does Rafael Nadal have against Sampras on hard court and grass and on clay Pete Sampras would beat Nadal.

@@davidgivins4203 i mean, it’s pete Sampras. Of course he could beat Nadal on clay. 1/15 for sure.

Well, he's the only guy in history to win 4 slams with only 3-sets games. So I guess it makes a difference when you fight this much for every set.

@@pierreardouin6441 yeah, but trying so hard might get you injured, He is such a competitor ❤️❤️

I think it helped that he wasn't in danger of losing the match. With less pressure he could swing freely

Nah, this is where you're wrong, this actually helps Nadal immensely on the mental side for his future matches to win sets like these, also it gives him a huge mental edge against the player and players he didn't even play yet, because they go in a match with him already with a mental block thinking that he will probably fight for every set like this. This is actually a classic example of getting back what you work for, while someone like Federer would give up the set and win the fourth easily he still doesn't get any advantage from it except making it easy for himself in that particular match.

@@tarjji not really. Nadal thrives under pressure (except with Novak in which he freezes for some stupid reason)

Djoko stronger

@@chr7s853 mentally ? I dont think so djoko can get emotional at times

@@saccount8009 yeah sure specially when djokovic plays the best match of his life one day and then he loses 2-6 1-6 against a guy who have just learnt how to pick up a racket. Djokovic is the best when it comes to technique but mentally there is no one like nadal.

@@gotyamaywritedat8560 you mean sonego?

@@saccount8009 how is Djokovic stronger mentally when he struggled so much with that in his early career and had so many controversial plays for example us open 2020. Djokovic is much weaker than Nadal jmentally AND physically

Lolololol

@the awakened not yet. Federer leads Nadal in 3/4 slams. A.O 6-1 WB 8-2 U.S. 5-4 ATP Finals 6-0 Weeks @#1 310-209.

@the awakened Nadal's my favorite player but even if teenage Nadal was dominating Federer he was only winning the F.O while Federer was winning three slams a year so obviously the guy who is winning 3 slams a year is the better player. Davydenko leads Nadal 6-5 and Dustin brown 2-0. Are these guys better than Nadal?

@the awakened HTH is irrelevant cause Federer leads Nadal in 3/4 slams.

@@patricksweeney5308 Federer and Novak are just as tired as Nadal is in November. They are obviously better indoor H.C players then Nadal.

@@martydav9475 and how many of those greats have 13 gs in clay court??? They can't even do it in their era, much less in an era where there are three GOATS competing for all the slams...

@@martydav9475 Federer and Djokovic themselves are immensely capable on clay. Both would have had 6 French Opens by now if they didn't run into him. Thing is, Nadal on clay is just in another category.

Yeah I’m pretty sure he won his titles since then

In sports it can happen to anyone on a given day

Of course I never played in those levels but that happens a lot in high ranked competitions when you are like 16. I was much better at comebacks than I was at maintaining the lead

For sure. Everyone knows that could happen against Nadal xD

Well, I never heard of this guy after that So the answer to the original question is: NO

it's gotta be unbelievably frustrating to hit winners only to have it come right back, again and again. especially after a 40 hit rally, it's gotta be brutal. and losing a long rally is still a win for Nadal, since he enjoys it while his opponent probably doesn't.

Sure, I would have closed that out. 4th set.🤔

Rafa is on clay with no doubt the best player ever

Well Borg won 6 titles at Roland Garros so he might have given Nadal a challenge if they both had to play with the old style wooden rackets.

@@jonathanmedcraft928 Rafa could not play his style of game with a wooden racket... I also think Rafa is mentally stronger. The first time Borg got seriously challenged, by McEnroe, he packed up his bags and departed stage left...

Actually, that was partly my point that Rafa could not play with a wooden racket - the game has moved on in so many ways. As for Borg’s mental strength, well most people including McEnroe thought that Borg would fold after having lost the tie break in the Wimbledon final, but then Borg came back to win the 5th set. Of course, after having won 11 Grand Slams, Borg ran out of ambition and retired at the very young age of 25 or so. Still, I like both Borg and Nadal so nothing more to add really.

@@jonathanmedcraft928 The thing is a lot of pundits think that Borg realised that McEnroe, in the long term, was too big a threat and decided to call it quits. However I will concede him winning Roland Garros and Wimbledon back to back for 5 straight years will probably never be repeated...

Mark my word! Djokovic will never win the most slams. Nadal will!

I totally agree with you my friend!

@@jovyparagas4751 BLAME IT GORAN BIG MOUTH.

Nadal is actually much more the gentleman than Federer. When was the last time you saw Nadal smash a ball into the crown in disgust? Federer does it quite regularly. I don't get why the media perpetuates this myth that federer is such a gentleman when Rafa is the greatest sportsman the game has seen, along with Edberg.

@@schumifan78 When was the last time Federer "smashed the ball into the crowd"? Yes, he smashed balls when he was younger but into the crowd during a match would result in warnings or disqualification. I'm not the biggest Fed fan, but he is an excellent ambassador of the game. Sure, you don't understand how everyone, including players, hold Federer in the highest regard, but that's for you to find out. If you said Kyrgios or Andy Murray, I'd understand, but Federer appears to be a gentleman to most people..

i did it two weeks ago! lol
