At the moment I'm thinking it might not even be an epic. Like everyone else, Nole just can't hit through Rafa.

It actually looks quite windy; lots of T shirt ruffling. Where is Serena in a dress when you need her.
Well, that ended quicker than I thought after the first couple of games. Keep this up plz so I can sleep.
Novak's outfit is Very Good. That bum.

Pretty impressive set from Rafa. Nole right now looks like Mopey Murray did. But yeah, I think he'll wake up better than Andy did. Trouble is, Rafa will still be there.

Yeah, like a lot of parody accounts, I suppose. Plus I don't actually hear JMac commentary during matches since I mostly watch European streams, so I think part of the jokes were lost on me. But that account is really quite funny.

Thing is, Nole has never quite rediscovered his 2011 peak form. It's all relative, obv - he's "merely" the clear No 1 rather than unbeatable - but that was the only era he truly dominated Rafa.

That domination still left a clear mark in all of Rafa fans' hearts, lol. It was scary. 8 straight finals was it? I never gave Rafa a chance in any of them. And even at this year's RG Novak was up a break in the 5th after Rafa served for it in the 4th. A couple of points here and there and Novak would have been a RG champion right now. I just never write him off.

Lolz, does anyone else follow the fake Johnny Mac on Twitter? It's quite good. I briefly thought it was real, because I didn't read the header. Basically, I'm like somebody's grandma on the Internet these days.
