Nadal right now is the best player in the world. I knew it was just a matter of time before this rafael nadal returned to dominance. Luckily for Federer fans, I think Federer can handle him on this surface. But Nadal is a lock for the French.

It is really great to see Nadal and Federer back with high quality after skipping the tour for quite a while.
Getting bored to see Djoker Murray all the time.

Rafa rock solid 6-4

Cuse0323 · 01-25-17, 04:42 AM

Nadal needs this set. Raonic is settling. Nadal missing opportunities.

We're good even if Raonic wins this set imo. Nadal is gonna wear him down.

Maybe he was out of gas, he needed to take a longer rest

Cuse0323 · 01-25-17, 04:59 AM

Good, Canadian bitch. Come on Rafa. John slurping the nuts. Sick of hearing it.

Cuse0323 · 01-25-17, 05:01 AM

I wish I could bet that he just got pumped full of drugs. Easy money. Bullshit.

Ima join him. In honor of Rafa.

Goat Milk · 01-25-17, 05:05 AM

Don't worry Nadal is gonna break his soul.

Elton Jack · 01-25-17, 05:12 AM

raonic holding up so far. after first set i wouldnt bet that he can even hold 6 times in a set..

gorwin068 · 01-25-17, 05:13 AM

Cuse0323 · 01-25-17, 05:52 AM

Absolute beast mode.

Cuse0323 · 01-25-17, 06:21 AM

Louisvillekid1 · 01-25-17, 06:23 AM

Wahoo

raonic beats most with that effort

not nadal tho

nice cash

gorwin068 · 01-25-17, 06:23 AM

Game Set Match, Nadal won 3-0, job done.
The last two points were ridiculous, proving Rafa is back !!!

jjgold · 01-25-17, 06:26 AM

These older players have to be taking steroids

One player left on both sides under 30 and many over 34

NADAL BURIED EVERYONE

I don't see him being beat. He's on a mission. I'll be rooting for Fed, but the only one who can beat Nadal is Stan. IMO. This is the most important major to Nadal ever, after how long it's been. He's a warrior.

This AO Slam is really interesting to watch, great matchup, Roger Nadal back to their form. Even on the woman side, there may be Williams' final too lol

That one match convinced you? lol cuse Nadal has played like he just did all tournament. Deep down I wanted to take him to win 3-0 but chickened out at the end with everyone taking Raonic. So I played it safe with the ML. You have to know that Federer right now on this surface will be unbeatable. And when futures come out at my book, I will pound federer to win it all. Why? Nadal is still leaving a lot of balls short. Federer will pound those and will come straight to the net. Nadal will play great D but will lose in the end. And 2) Nadal's serve won't faze Federer at all. Federer should win that match in 4 sets. Dimitrov will be a big test for Nadal if he plays his A game. Dimitov moves well and his groundstrokes have more power than Raonic. Way more variety in his game. If Nadal struggles at all with Dimitrov, who is a poor man's federer, exactly same style, just slightly worse in every aspect, he will struggle to beat Fed in the finals. I do think Nadal is a better player right now. But this is Nadal's worst surface and Federer's best. No I don't think Wimbledon is Fed's best surface anymore.
