Federer wasn’t going to beat Nadal or Djoker. Please. Fed is Nadal’s puppy, same for Djokovic. It was either them two or tonight.My mate just said the same thing to me!
Watch him s**t the bed next game after knocking out the only bloke who could beat Rafa or Joker.
Since when has Fed had the wood on Nadal? Nadal probably wanted to adjust /adapt his game for Djokovic and him only.Nadal has gone away and worked on improving aspects of his game because he knows Federer and Djokovic has the wood on him. He isn't concerned about anyone else. With those changes Federer has a different proposition to deal with which he won't be able to counter now. We won't have a big 3 much longer it will be the big 2 for I think another 2 years. Still well and truly the best in the business.

Oh, gotcha. You're right, totally different cattle of fish.MUCH harder to beat Novak and for that matter Nadal over 5 than 3.
The term is kettle of fish not cattle.

And Nadal has beaten him on both surfaces. Nadal even adapted his game and won Wimbledon against the greatest on that surface. Federer couldn’t do that on clay.Since Fed started hitting every ball on the rise in 2017 Nadal hasn't been able to get over him. Nadal has the wining match up because 40% of the games they played were on clay, while 6% of the games were on grass.

Federer has won the last 6 hasn't he? Rafa hasn't beaten him since 2016 that's the point I was getting at not ancient history results. There's no way someone as meticulous in their preparation as Rafa is will allow that to continue.And Nadal has beaten him on both surfaces.

The record in Grand Slams is 9-3 Nadal’s way. That’s the important stat. Prior to 2017 Aus open final, Nadal actually beat him 6 times in a row. Last win was way back in 2007.
Nadal was a nightmare matchup for Fed. Nadal's topspin forehand goes right into the Fed backhand which is the side that can be a little shanky and error prone. Nadal just doesn't miss much.
I owe you an apology, you were right mate , hope there's no hard feelingsRafa won't beat Federer. Guaranteed.
Not anymore. Yes Nadal puts a lot of topspin and depth on shots and one handed backhands naturally struggle on high balls. However Federer has been standing closer to the baseline since 2017 and hits the ball on the rise a lot which is why hes won the past 5. As Kyrgios said it feels like Federer half volleys everything.
Pav definitely blowing plenty of break points in that game.8th deuce in the first game of the third set, both players looking like they're over it.
