i'm sorry, for all of Rohit's greatness in this tournament, he's fucked that up for India. 80-1 in the powerplay, you're on top, you already got 10 off the last two balls, why can't you relax and build the innings knowing the next batsmen are inexperienced for such a big game?.

The reason this loss and 22 stings extra to Nolefam is that they believed Novak is going to destroy Rafa. After what happened last year, this was supposed to be easy as it gets. So many of them predicted a straight sets win for Nole. They can't handle the fact that it wasn't so.

what Djokovic fans don't understand is that Nadal already had an ATG career before Novak became his biggest rival. It's not difficult to understand why he considers Roger his greatest rival, especially if you've heard how highly a younger Nadal used to talk about him.

sums up their careers. Djokovic = Luckiest player of all time.Nadal = Unluckiest player of all time. Despite this, Nadal is still only two slams behind.
Djokovic getting Sinner's help today while 2019 Nadal remains the only man in the last decade to go 2-1 and *not* advance is a nice summary of the overall good vs bad fortune each has had.(and no, this is not saying Djokovic always needed that fortune, of course he didn't).

well thankfully Nadal didn't consult these specialists in 2005 or he would've retired with one slam.
Two orthopedists raise doubts about Nadals Müller-Weiss-syndrom via sz. "This disease and competitive sport that's a contradiction". "I don't think he has bone necrosis, because it's progressing and isn't compatible with high-performance sport for hours".

If dealing with Nadal is the crux, then Federer's case is even stronger than Djokovic's. - Federer faced an even better Nadal.- Only and only Nadal stopped him at RG, he won it the first Nadal-less chance he got, Novak was stopped by Stan and Thiem as well.

This was supposed to be their redemption arc, the final nail in the coffin for Rafa. Novax winning the first GS he was allowed to play after the Australia saga, so they can dimean Rafa's AO win that much more. Whatever happens now on, they won't have that for them.

someone should send him tweets of Pavvy, Puneet, Yolita, etc. from last year's RG and all the times rafa was injured before or since. The people he and his wife follow, interact with and put up on a pedestal. If anyone does play victim, ALWAYS, it's you and your fanbase.
HE SAID THAT: "WHEN I AM INJURED EVERYONE DOUBTS ME, BUT WHEN SOMEONE OTHER IS INJURED, THEY ACT LIKE A VICTIM AND NO ONE DOUBTS INJURY, YOU KNOW WHO I AM TALKING ABOUT". Was waiting for this moment since AO 2022, my King is spittin.

cause poor versions of Rafa reached QF and SF at RG for Djoko to feast upon. Poor versions of Nole lost in R2 and R4 at Aus ducking Fed and Nadal when they were better at AO than thim🤭.
