That Nole lob was just cruel Kinda disturbing to see Rafa's shoulders slump so obviously.

Wait. "Finally. Getting beyond a joke now." Wasn't that about Novak winning the game? That was about the time violation, actually. It's ridiculous, even considering the crowd. JUST FUCKING SERVE! Also, it's over now. Rafito = Nole's bitch. Like we didn't already know but still.

This thread suggests this match is closer than the score.

For that game it was closer than the score. Otherwise it's just...longer than the score.

At least Novak got his code violation as well. But honestly the crowd is ridiculous. Can't they just STFU? Or at least make the normal noises like "ooooh" and "aaaah"?
Just don't get bagelled in the 3rd!

Well, I thought Novak was serving for the set. Will be soon enough anyway.

3 backhands hit the service line, Novak smacks a CC winner with his, thank you very much.

Seriously Rafa, if even you forehand bounces before the service line, then WTF you're doing out there??

YAY! So exciting just to see him GET BACK EVEN. You're so cruel!! He needs to enjoy all the scraps he gets!! Look at those 2 forehand errors he just presented to Novak? Here is the 3rd one! Getting outplayed yet still giving away everything! He's so kind!

That's such a pathetic game, Rafa! Just no words.
Not that I expected a turnaround or something, but this game was just a ridiculous waste, wasn't it?

Rafa had every right to be excited, but why so excited that he throws away the next game

BenRothenberg Ben Rothenberg Wild momentum swings in this final: Nadal wins 2 games, Djokovic wins 6, Nadal wins 2, Djokovic wins 4, Nadal wins 2.
Djokovic wins 2.
I guess I'm going to sleep.

I'm not sure Rafa's streaks of TWO measly games count as momentum swings.

Nadal should try LOSING the first 2 games of this set and see if that works better!

Novak's variety is so impressive. Rafa can't put together an effective strategy against him because Nole keeps switching up his line of attack, and is prepared to do it on big points too. Drop shots and finesse, net play, defense, grinding in neutral, out-and-out attack...he's done all of those.

That was a HUGE break for Nadal!
To get to 2-6 4-6 2-2!
The match has tuuuuuuuuuuuurned

It's too bad for Novak we killed Osama BIN LADEN (ALQ) before he could play the US Open as a wild card. Maybe he would get crowd support in that match.
Maybe.
