LEdger Poppunk watch miami federer vs nadal 2005

LEdger Poppunk indeee they are.

stoned soul Nadal was robbed off a straight sets win there (Miami 2005).

Watch Federer Nadal Australien Open 2017 💥💥

I think water is wet.

Clay court specialist did this. But in exchange Roger and Novak has completed the Sunshine Double by winning Indian Wells and Miami Open in a row. But I agree that the North American Hard Court Slam is way harder to acheive.

@@clearbluewater9784 nadal never did the sunshine double because he cared too much about ending spring hardcourt early to start early prep for clay season

Lol fed made 10 consecutive slams in a row the record much harder to do then anything nadals done and djokovic has all 9 masters 1000 nadal never

Yes, and he was 27 matches unbeaten on hardcourt. He won Indian Wells, Montreal, Cincinnati and the US Open. The streak ended in the Beijing final against Djokovic

@@Jacques1103 Novak's had unbeaten runs better

Lol dude what are you doing here? I thought you only did ios apps. 😂😂

I think this was the US Open where Rafa also served like a beast, a lot of aces and big serves. And for some reason, he forgot to serve like this ever since.

Just thought the same after watching this video again? Nadal has 6 majors in hard court, could be 7 (that injury in AO...) And watching these highlights he looks like a hard court specialist, some of the volleys are insane!

@@travisbickle5279 as per the pattern of this Rafa is now going to make this 4-0 from now

The most important victory in Nadal's career is definitely the Wimbledon 2008 final, that match opened the doors for him on surfaces other than clay.

Gherbi Hicham That's a great point. He only won French before that match. But I am not rating it in terms of 'importance' but rather the 'quality' of the victory. Nadal was on a roll against Fed, a mental advantage which he never had against Djokovic, in fact it was the other way around after the horrendous 2011. That's why Nadal will be always a better player for me than Fed, he actually solved the Djokovic problem, and not aided by any dip in the other's game, but solely due to his own courage and physical effort, unlike Fed who never could really solve the Nadal-problem.

This is the most emphatic win of Nadal’s career..... yes Wimbledon 08 was big but dude...... no one was beating this man in this day. Djokovic actually gave up in the 4th set... he knew there was noooo chance

@@pragjyotishbhuyangogoi8363 fed has beaten nadal last 5 matches. He solved

@@saikatsarkar288 Skipping clay? That's quite a backing out.

So grateful, I watched them at AO2019 final :)

it's fantastic, i watched them rome 2011-14-19

@@ReDBullNixE Which one was your favourite?

Sumnah Lennon as nadal fan rome 2019 ;)

But he hits the forehand so much harder then (more top spin)

His backhand was frighteningly good at Wimbledon in 2018.

Yan Okimura nadal vs djocovic is like defende vs defense. They are looking for others vulnerability rather than taking risky shots, but when it comes to federer vs nadal, it will be best offense vs best defence. Both players have a complete contrasting style which make the game have more varieties than any other game. I am excluding AO 2012. About AO 2017, both players are well past their prime which dimnished federers forehand and running attack all around the court, whereas Nadal lost his speed and spinning rate

Yeah well,I like this Hammer vs Hammer style of play,I like more brutal rallies than varieties,I like a match that the players go to the limits of their limits like Novak and Rafa,Roger and Rafa is simple,the victorious come when one are playing better than the other no mystery,nothing unexpected...but Novak Djokovic Vs Rafael Nadal is like.....Rangers vs Krauts #Respect

Yan Okimura opinions may vary. But because of that you could never declare roger rafa is simple. Rafa djocovic is like running across the base line. Rafa federer is like running all across the court. Moreover, Fedal rivalry is the only rivalry which have been compared to the standards of borg mcenroe and nadal djocovic rivalry is considered the second best rivalry of 21st century Reference Atpworldtour.com

Rafa and Novak not just cover all court as you can see in this hightlights,but they both are faster than Roger man,sorry about that but it's true,Roger is more efficiet on all aspects,but Rafa and Novak from 2012 to 2015,are faster,you need to rewatch the hightlights...and bealieve or not,ask the great Roger about the level of this match,and he's gonna answer honestly as a champion he is...

Yan Okimura, I feel the same way. Djokovic vs Nadal is simply the best rivalry of tennis. Their matches have always been so brutal, even since their first matches you could see them returning ridiculous shots, and the quality of their rallies is out of this world. But discussing this in an era where almost everyone is a fan of either Nadal or Federer is very difficult. I feel that 10 or 20 years from now, people will be more aware of how great this rivalry really was, and even give the proper credit to Djokovic's achievements.

TG.

Oh yeah nadal is now in Novak's shadow as true greatness reigns

Nadal is one of the most interesting players to watch while playing tennis 🎾

The world has never seen another player like the great Rafa,Greatest forehand ever and he has various ways of hitting it.No one can hit a forehand like him from very wide of the court and make it curl round the net with such velocity and accuracy. His backhand is just as lethal as his forehand and his volleys are just pure skill What that makes him the greatest out of the 3 is the way he can produce magic under extreme pressure..The way he beat then a very inform Federer at Wimbledon to win against the greatest player on grass proves his level of greatness.His serve is not big but make no mistake he knows how to utilise his lefty serve sometimes with power to great advantage. Nadal always displays dexterity against Novak and Federer. Some of the points I have seen him win against them and other players like Medevev who play well against him are just mind blowing. Nadal is the only player that can seem to achieve the impossible when you are thinking this is not possible. How many times have you heard commentators scream in disbelief using words like "Oh my God how did he do that ".I have never seen such a combination of skill ,determination and imperious execution of shots from all varieties.There is only one Rafa and he is a blessing to tennis.Nothing more entertaining on our screens than a Rafa match.Long live his career as its we who will lose out when he retires.

Imagine saying this when you haven’t even seen AO 2022 final

How about AO 2012 Final?

The same could be said for Nole as well at the AO & Wimbledon. We can give Rafa the edge at the U.S Open as he has a 2-1 lead to Nole there, but Rafa never beat Nole at the AO, while Nole has beaten Rafa twice at his golden house, and Nole leads the h2h 2-1 at Wimby, so overall Nole is the greatest and most unbeatable ever.

Nonsense, their fight at the 2012 AO Final was better than this. Nole wasn’t his complete self in this match. Not taking anything away from Rafa but their match at the 2012 AO final was the true hardcourt match for the ages.

Not Wimbledon 2008 or AO 2009 Final? I’d rather those over US open 2010, but at the same tier of us open 2013. Although, us open 2010 did complete the career slam..

Agreed. But Now I add, AO 2009, RG 2020, and AO 2022 for completely different reasons.

He makes finals all the time at Aus, Us. open too. Just gets tired or hurt to win whole thing. Don't forget he won U.S. open 2017

His match against Thiem at USO 2018 was also classic.

2009 AO open final was his best. That was the only final where Nadal and Federer had a point to prove. Fed having lost at Wimbledon and his No.1 title and Nadal to see if he can back up grass and become an all court player.

@@rassvet1612 strange reasoning. Nadal was clearly an all court player and was innevitably going to win a hard court grand slam. 2013 is massive because of how much Djokovic had battered Nadal outside of clay in previous years. And more so because its one of few times hes outplayed (a very strong) djok. The manner of victory combined with pschological strength it took to do so makes this one of/ if not the Greatest Nadal GS win He needs something similar again Nadal has not beaten Djok on hard SINCE THIS MATCH

2019 !!! 2022

@@yuval130geeahrs4 He won in 2019, but he was just solid and didn't play anyone that good.

And 2008 Wimbledon against Fed was one of the best matches ever. 2022 is yet to be determined. I hope he can in this year. We'll see.

@Anubhav Mahapatra I think what he meant was he's not naturally gifted as he just works tremendously hard to improve his game

Injuries are part of the game. If your opinion applies to federer he could have won 30+ grand slams.

​@@parthjagtap5447 Not naturally gifted? Nadal had the most titles as a teenager ever (16 titles tied with Borg) , he defeated the reigning French Open winner when he was 16, defeated Federer at his prime when he was 17, has the best forehand of all time, is the best volleyer of the current generation (yes including Federer in that list as well, this noted by John McEnroe not me), he comes up with the most amazing plays you can ever see (yet to see a match where he doesn't pull up something almost impossible for most of the tour) and his skill and touch are incredible to say the least. This ongoing idiotic trend of reducing Nadal to just "hard work" and "physicality" is becoming laughable, Nadal is one of the most talented and naturally gifted athletes of all time.

On a clay court, you mean! Put any hard-court Rafa you want against pre-Roland Garros 2016 Djokovic. Especially Doha 2016 Djokovic(when he annihilated Rafa) or first 2 sets in AO 2016 against Roger. Maybe 2010 or 2013 Rafa would take a set. At the very most!

@@jay_kulina Nadal was not in good form, in 2016. In fact, not long after Nadal won the 2014 FO, his form declined. And it lasted throughout 2016 (with him being in his worse form, in 2015). But, 2010 Nadal would've destroyed any HC version of Djokovic. And Djokovic made it CRYSTAL CLEAR to the entire world that he could only have defeated Nadal at the FO, when Nadal was in his worse form ever! And No, I do not mean just on clay court! Because, prior to 2011, Nadal held a 2-0 h2h lead against Djokovic on grass (in addition to 9-0 on clay). And he had also won more slams than Djokovic on ALL surfaces. Djokovic slam count accelerated when Federer and Nadal started to slow down, during the later years of the rivalry. Most of his geater accomplishments took place from 2011 and beyond (at which point Federer was 30 yrs and older). And the effects of injuries had also caused Nadal to slow down during some of those later years. In fact, in 2015, when Djokovic recorded his best season, Federer was about 34 yrs old. And Nadal (as I pointed out before) was in his worse form. But of the 1st 20 GS titles of the Federer/Nadal/Djokovic rivarly dating back from 2006, Djokovic won ONLY 1. Federer won 9. And Nadal won 8 (including 4 away from clay). So, what are you talking about?

@@jay_kulina totally agree

@And Siq beat the greatest returner in the game with serve? Nah, i don't think so! Don't get me wrong, USO 2010 Rafa was impressive overall and his serve was godlike for his standards. But could he beat AO 2016 or Doha 2016 Djokovic? I just can't see it. Maybe push it to a 5-setter. Not even. I think it would be a 4-hour 3-1 win for Novak. Maybe i'm wrong, we will never know. For me peak Novak is the scariest thing that has happened in hard-court tennis and second overall after 2008 RG Rafa.

@And Siq I don't disagree with that at all. Prime Rafa can't be beaten on clay.

Absolutely gutted for what happened there. Nadal has declined massively from what he was here. It's like he simply doesn't have the stroke strength on backhands and forehands anymore.

Chinoo Tripathi yeah, he seemed so “old” today 😔 but I think the main problem was that he was playing vs djokovic... He’s got a mental block or something when he faces him, because for the rest of the tournament (with lesser opponents for sure) played much better than today. I feared he would be the loser but not like this, given what he had shown...

@@wildwind5571 Yes I do agree on that. But today it felt like, I was watching an old Hewitt playing, there were simply no positives, he was not able to put pressure on Djokovic's first serve, and was only relying on rallies, where he was absolutely demolished.

Chinoo Tripathi yeah today he was massacred... But I want to believe him when he says that fitness was the main issue and that with work he can get to level of at least putting pressure on djokovic. I’m hoping for a final against him in RG, if rafa could win maybe he could regain confidence playing djokovic and beat him on other surfaces too

@@wildwind5571 I hope this is not the end of my childhood, as I grew up watching Rafa- Roger and Rafa - Novak rivalry. The way Rafa played today, it felt like the end is very near for him, and suprisingly even faster than Roger and Novak. His injuries really did the damage to him, otherwise, we would have seen a lot more matches like this in years to come. I also hope Andy can find something in his game, and Australian open was not his last gs.

That would apply mostly to clay.

@Elias yeah but still it's not nearly impossible to beat Nadal overall

@Elias definitely not on a hard court. Djokovic did well to get a set and with better luck he could've won 2. Djokovic on his day would be able to beat this Nadal imo

@Elias do you know that this is the last time that Nadal beat Novak on HC was at USO 2013 and AO 2014(the next slam) was the last time he beat Federer on HC?

Wrong, very easy, easy, medium, hard, very hard, Djoker, Nadal, impossible, miracle, Federer.

yes sir

Meeeeeere

Nadal serve in us open 2019 looks more faster and lethal than 2013. And he uses more serve and volley as well.

I am VAMOS!!!!!!!

Whenever I’m feeling down, I watch this match. My favorite of all time.

Rafa is like “fighting spirit” When it comes to mentality no one comes close against Novak because he actually improves his game when the his legacy is on the line

The crazy thing is that this match is the third time he did that in a slam final. He did it twice against Federer in the third set of the RG 2006 and AO 2009 finals.

Yea on clay though

I agree. Being an emotional player such as Novak, his mentality has always played a very big part in his game, both in success in failure.

Actually that is true but the reality was that he went down on himself far too much following the French Open semi defeat in the semi and it gutted him for the rest of the Summer, his backhand was malfunctioning in the tournament and a statistic showed that unless he corrected it he would lose the final...the backhand that he overcooked for the double break that would have almost sealed the third set was an example of that...

agree completely this final and wimbldeon 2013 was 2 worst of djokovic career, mentally broken completely and go dwon after that 3rd set which he should have won

Nadal was not even playing at his best. Look at his overall court coverage

Augustin Abraham Nadal was definitely at his best here, especially on hard courts. He never ever played as well as he did in 2013 on hard courts. You deluded boy.

The way he hugs Rafa at the end as well just like after every other slam final loss to him you didn't see Rafa offer Novak a hug after 2011 wimbledon 2011 us open 2012 aus open.. and i dont blame rafa Who feels like hugging their opponent after such a painful loss like that... just hats off novak

@@Diego-ky2nj DId you see Novak after he lost against Rafa at RG 2022? He didn't even stick around to do the oncourt interview. So you point is null and void.

@@Sbudre Lol you clearly don’t watch tennis. The loser of a match always gets their bags and leaves the court right away, only the winner does an on-court interview.

Rafa is aggressive

@@archiesutherland6127 He is not a "defensive baseliner" at all on hard courts. On clay courts he is also not a "defensive baseliner" but you can see why he doesn't have to redline because his clay court game is soooo good. You play differently on each of the 3 surfaces and he masters clay so ridiculously well. I enjoy Rafa's 2009 AO F, 2019 USO F and 2022 AO F the most actually and can rewatch those matches over and over again. On clay he is so damn good that the other guy never stands a chance and grass court is so boring with short rallies and a lot of unforced errors by both rafa and roger in the 2008 Wimbledon F.

NLLeFa i agree

Alex B. 21:06 you'll see one bitter face. no matter how much he pretends this guy can never handle a loss.

Adarsh B S I don't hold that against him. If you're as good as Novak then anything but winning is a HUGE disappointment.

Adarsh B S Wouldn't you be bitter? You train for months just to reach the final and lose, if you've ever been through a situation like that you'd understand the pain

Yes Alex.. i am seeing that again n again .. the best moment.. that fist pump... that shows how passionate this man is .. tennis needs Rafa.. if fans celebrate Federer and Djoker game, that becoz they always had powerful opponent like Rafa throughout their career.. Rafa made tennis more interesting than ever. He deserved to be GOAT.

I think you meant the 2019 Rome and RG finals.

I hope Rafa can win more titles this year and end up as YE#1. If he wins YE#1 at 36 years old it would be one of his greatest accomplishments. He did win the French Open!!!

@@nogoodnameleft If he can get year end number 1... That would make it 6 times...only 1 behind Djokovic... Not bad for a guy who has spent 160 less weeks ranked as number 1 & played less GS to win more than any other male in the history of the sport.

Absolutely spot on rally wise

​@juneaug Lok We all know you're a super genius, I was merely pointing this out for mere mortals.

Djokovic's backhand in this match is much weaker than in 2011. So it goes both ways
