[brokenshoelace]

Smart change up on that slice to the forehand. Kept it low.

 

[britbox]

Bp nadal

 

[Murat B.]

hey Britbox...I missed most of it but it is fun !

 

[teddytennisfan]

EH -- a bit net ball -- BREAKPOINT

 

[teddytennisfan]

LET'S NOT FORGET SHAWN needs the scorses

 

[brokenshoelace]

WOW

 

[britbox]

Gets it... Nadal breaks

 

[teddytennisfan]

YAAAAAAA

 

[Moxie]

YESSSSSSS!

 

[teddytennisfan]

COME ON RAFA!!!

 

[brokenshoelace]

Shades of the backhand miss against Novak. I swear I had a literal flash back at the exact moment. Nadal has honestly been the betteer player this set.

 

[teddytennisfan]

he HAD to work very hard for THIS.

 

[brokenshoelace]

Now for the love of all that is good in the universe, serve it out.

 

[teddytennisfan]

MORE like in the last 3 games BROKEN.

 

[britbox]

Rafa to serve for the match at 5-4

 

[Murat B.]

From 15-40 down to breaking in his on serve to breaking in the next. That's how she goes .

 

[mrzz]

and it ended in a stupid aproach shot

 

[teddytennisfan]

IN general they are very close - even now probably ..

 

[britbox]

That hold by Nadal was one for the ages

 

[teddytennisfan]

ut rafa of course just could push a liiiittle more in the right moment HE needed.
