Grand Slam French Open 2022

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

Ruud can't hold serve .

 

[LukeParkerno1]

LukeParkerno1 ready for the big event?!

Good atmosphere here. Rafa on fire

 

[LukeParkerno1]

In a hypothetical world where the big 3 eventually retire, does anyone think Ruud has the game to win a French Open one day?

Yes he’d almost be the favourite.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Just dosen't give up Rafa.

Most tennis players would have probably lost that set but not Rafa he dug him self out and won what an incridble player

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Very lacklustre final (we’ll both finals really)

I don't think anything will come close to the AO final

A lot of ppl are saying it’s a boring match. I still have enjoyed watching Rafa today. Let’s see how the 3rd set pans out.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

I don't care if fans mock Rafas mind set prepration i love it

There were better finals than that one. The 6 hour Djokovic va Nadal one is the best final that has been played (also at the AO)

The Novak match was the pinnacle in terms of atmosphere but it’s good today. Think they might go to night finals though it just looks better under lights

He's coping a lesson now the kid

I am in no danger of missing my dinner booking

 

[FreoRicci]

Nadal is the GOAT, convince me otherwise

 

[FreoRicci]

Will Nadal play Wimbledon in a few weeks time? Be interesting

 

[Zevon]

Nadal is the GOAT, convince me otherwise

On this surface I don’t think there is any question whatsoever.

 

[FreoRicci]

On this surface I don’t think there is any question whatsoever.

He still beat Federer On his grass and Novak on his hard court. Novak can be the only one that says I’m better, as he has been the closest to him on clay then anyone else really

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Will Nadal play Wimbledon in a few weeks time? Be interesting

Apparently he is but I won’t be shocked if he takes a break before then with no warmup

 

[Zevon]

A thumping 6-0 in the 3rd set to finish proceedings. What an imperious performance from Nadal. He never really looked troubled at any stage

It’s either Nadal or Novak. Novak probably gets to 22 anyway. Be nice if they both end on 22.

Oh for sure, you can definitely make the argument. Just that on clay he’s the GOAT without any question at all, whereas on the other surfaces it’s more open for discussion

Thought he was only “passable” in the first two sets, 3rd set was more of what I expected

 

[juice t]

Of all the unbreakable records in tennis 14 titles at the one Slam is well and truly the most unbreakable record in tennis

Incredible

 

[Zevon]

Yeah first two sets he was solid without being spectacular but you still never got the sense he was in any danger, barring one shocking service game in the second.

Rudd played a brainless game. Didn’t even give himself a chance. Honestly who beats Nadal playing 5 foot behind the baseline and on clay? You have to take the ball early and you have to live with a few UE’s.

Nadal was never losing with Rudd playing that far behind. It’s just never going to work
