A lot of people predicted his game wouldn't age well the older he got.nadal the iverson of tennis... his career is done for... i hope im wrong because im a huge rafa fan but to be up 2 sets and lose in a major.... but not only that he just had a bad year in general...i was hoping he would come out strong in this tournament but i knew before the match an upset was going to happen... he plays with a lot of passion but he grinds a lot compared to the big 3 novak, roger and andy he puts too much effort into each point which takes a toll on his body... the decline of rafa is only beginning
He might pull off a Federer-like run.im still sad for rafa... i know this will only be the beginning to the end of his career
I think he needs to add a new coach to his team.im hoping rafa just had a bad year and will come back strong and will win a major or two next year... still think he should stick with uncle toni... still disappointed rafa 10 year streak with 1 major win is broken
Given their history, a Foggy win wasn't that unexpected,
Agreed, by 'ruining,' I meant he's letting Nadal play this style just because he's won with it for the majority of the time.uncle toni gave rafa a great career with a lot of major wins and basically dominant in roland garros... still think rafa should add more to his game so he can play the game more easy instead of grinding every single point
It's a perfectly legitimate tactic. You won't see a lot of people do it cuz it's very hard to time, but if you're seeing the ball like a grapefruit, and can pull it off, then why not?I don't remember this being discussed in here. But thoughts on Federer's surprise half volley return of serve tactic?
I like it and get the idea of taking away timing and disrupting rhythm but does anyone thing some players may take offense to it? Then again it is Federer.
I don't necessarily see it an issue of respect. He's well-respected, yes, but if he does something grey-area unsportsmanlike, I don't think the other players are gonna give him a pass just because it's him.
Since he's so well respected in the tennis world, I can't imagine a whole lot of players taking offense by it.
