Grand Slam French Open 2020

Hopefully Nadal vs Djokovic tonight is an absolute classic.

I’m pretty confident they won’t let us down. Expecting at least 4 or 5 sets.

Fairly good video.

I am not a huge fan of these matches. they take too long, they feel like a marathon when you are watching.

match starts at midnight

 

[BobbyMorri]

Is kuznetsova still playing?

yeah. ranked 33. Think she do really well in a tournament this year or last. can't recall.

to think, we had Wozniacki and Sharapova retire this year. the list could be longer.

Complete opposite of atp

Nadal in 5 for me but I think it's more important for Novak to win the first set.

Also this is the 5th consecutive French Open to have a maiden women's major winner

2016 - Muguruza
2017 - Ostapenko
2018 - Halep
2019 - Barty
2020 - Swiatek

From my vague awareness of the FO. It seemed it was common that there'd be a first time GS winner at the FO? long before this current sequence?

Personally, I though it was lame that Swiatek was wearing a ******* mask when taking photos of her holding the trophy on the podium.

It was really common for the clay specialists to do it on the men's side

Chang, Gomez, Bruguera, Muster, Kuerten, Moya, Costa, Ferrero and Gaudio (And Nadal) all won their first majors in France in the 15 years before Rafa

Tipping Nadal 3-1.

Vamos Rafa. Lots of records today if he wins. Fingers crossed.

Record for Novak too if he wins. First man since Laver to win all the grand slams more than once

Good start from Nadal.

I feel the same, like those first 3 games shouldn't take 20 minutes

I want Laver to be the only one with that record, thanks.

 

[FreoRicci]

Nadal all over this first set. Wow wee

 

[NSWCROW]

Ummmmmm wtf

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Well if you are losing a set you may as well tank it hard

 

[xenxen]

Wow! 6-0! Crazy!

 

[FreoRicci]

Finally. Djokovic needs to attack. Nadal just defends deep

a 45 min bagel!!!!

That is something.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Finally. Djokovic needs to attack. Nadal just defends deep

And come into the net a bit you aren’t hitting through Nadal in these conditions

 

[Munich]

I want Laver to be the only one with that record, thanks.

It's not comparable when you played 3/4 slams on the same surface!

Imagine how many Feds would have if he got to play 3 Wimby's a year.

Nice bagel dished up for legohead.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

He won a game lol

 

[NSWCROW]

Taking the piss

 

[one eyedtiger]

This is insane, Djokovic has no answers...
