Rafa is so honest with his assessment of himself. That is why this guy is so loved. LOVE YOU RAFA.

I only watch tennis because of him. It is thrilling to watch him play, and I am happy to watch him play even if he loses. He is so humble and does not take any opponent for granted. He plays his heart out. His humility, respect, kindness, and maturity make him exceptional and complement his athleticism.

Old Rafa is not back yet but he's getting there. Great match champ.enjoyed every bit of it.👌🏻👍🏼💪🏼❤

Roger used to be my fave but slowly I loved Rafa that little bit more coz he so nice a respectful and proper, this guy we will never see the like of again

Congrats for another victory,vamos The next will. Be more fun and excitement for rafans. For now enjoy the moment.

He still has the power….just stay healthy

Ben tornato Rafa , contenta della tua vittoria! Grande 👍🌟

King champ goat

He knows too well the old RAFA

He’s getting there 😍🙌

One game at a time please!

Sonrie, maestro volvio, es el... 💪

And Nadal has shown once again that if he was 100% healthy nobody would've stood a chance against him, even at this age. De Minaur is a top 10 player (11th now but definitely a top 10 form) and Nadal beat him in 2 straight sets.

He played very well 👍

Well done Rafa! All the best always!!!!

Hats off Rafa

One more RG title please I'm begging you

Immenso RE NOSTRO RAFAEL

Best person ever ❤❤❤🎉

Rafa admitted he was not fully there. So did the commentator who says at times. Anyway, what is true is Rafa's 70%-80% is still better than others. 90-100%

It's okay. Take it essy, Rafa. Like Roddick said, even if you don't win anything anymore, we will always be grateful for and appreciate what you have done.

What past injuries are affecting him?

The screen is reversed, it's like watching a mix of nadal and max holoway

why no one asks the most important thing, which is how he felt on court. That's what's gonna determine the chances he has to achieve good results, as he said (and as we know) tennis is hardly the problem.

His loss in agility is noticeable. His top spins aren't helping either. He never really uses flat shots.

Keep the warm up going.

not YET

from his perspective, he can only be back as "old Rafa" the moment he stands in the final.

Looks like he should loosen up his strings a little bit.

Il faut qu il finisse sa carrière en beauté..... pour que son fils puisse admirer son papa

Nadal is finish😅

Rafah could take a giant step to declaring himself at least part way back if he beats Medvedev. Medvedev will be a great test for Rafah’s stamina as Medvedev has long rallies that take your legs out from under you.

His skin color has become like that if the red clay

He's not Rafael and little of he
