I'm not too sure what to think when the guy named Nadal Fan has the most level headed and respectful take on this match. calling Roger a choker while downplaying Rafa's performance is either highly disingenuous or ignorant, and I'm not sure which is worse.
Roger was clearly uncomfortable the whole match, trying to hit through Rafa and even brought back the super flat cross court backhand for a while. decent game plan when it's not Roland Garros clay with a tornado in the middle of the stadium. in these conditions, there was never going to be a different result.
go take care of business Djoker so that we can enjoy an epic finale during Sunday breakfast.
