Djokovic/Nadal Exhibition

[lacatch]

I saw about 10 minutes of highlights from the match this past weekend in Thailand. Nole won 6-4 6-2 in about an hour. I thought that generally exhibitions are a bit "scripted" with good-natured fun, and a close scoreline to entertain the crowd. But in this case, it seems that Novak was in no mood to give Rafa even a whiff that he might be competitive with him. Any thoughts ?

If that's the case, the fans are the losers. I agree with you, exos are for fun, trick shots, drawing celebs outta the crowd to hit with kids. If either of them took this one seriously, it's a breach of exo etiquette...

With Thailand being under the military rule, perhaps they both wanted to get their pay check and get the hell out of the country as soon as possible. :snicker

Both of them met Prime Minister

Why is Novak wearing glasses these days? Does he wear contact lenses on court?

No idea!

It's prolly an act, like his fake injuries and fatigue in oz... :snicker

That's what I said on the tourney thread; looks more like an exhibition with Rafa all at sea and Nole bored for the most part just crackin' winners from all over the court! This is beginning to be embarrassing for Rafa and his fans! :cover :clap :lolz: :snicker :laydownlaughing
