2019 Roland Garros Men's Final: Rafael Nadal vs. Dominic Thiem

[Moxie]

It's touching, really, Darth...you hate Rafa and you hate Thiem, and yet you're here, so you must really love us.

 

[britbox]

Tired shots from Thiem. Hopefully he'll get a second wind.

 

[Moxie]

I expect him to regroup.

 

[rafanoy1992]

Puerta was one point away from taking Rafa to a fifth set in a RG final...

 

[atttomole]

Thiem is cooked. And Rafa knows it.

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Wow. Nadal just ready for everything that game. More aggressive. Looking for new angles again. New patterns.

 

[Front242]

Yup

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Garbage drop shot there.

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Way too high.

 

[Front242]

Thiem should go drink everything in Nadal's bottles.

 

[mrzz]

hahahahaha

 

[britbox]

If Thiem drops serve again here then he's probably better tanking the set.

 

[tented]

Damn, Darth, you may be right. Not a point so far.

 

[tented]

OK, one point ...

 

[Front242]

This is pathetic

 

[tenisplayrla08]

Yeah. Puerta with the advantage of playing Rafa in his first slam final nearly took him 5. Rafa was still human. Still felt nerves. But was still just too good.

 

[mrzz]

Sometimes I think players like to give Nadal this confidence booster points

 

[Moxie]

Momentum swing in a big way.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

Rafa furious after losing a set

 

[rafanoy1992]

For the key was Nadal's expression after losing the 2nd set. No emotion at all...just went back to work
