I been watching Professional Tennis for 50 years and in my humble opinion Nadal is the best counter puncher that I have seen. His ability to absorb great shots then then open up incredible angles is truly amazing. Everyone has a plan until he hits that impossible shot!
I agree.
So true
Hello Sir hope you are doing good
He’s got too many weapons to be a counter puncher, I doubt many coaches would describe him that way. He’s definitely doesn’t miss much!
He still lost the respect of tennis fans around the world when he backstabbed novak.
What a game! Surprised that kyrgios can play so well without the tantrums. He is a good player if he can be serious in his game. Congratulations to both for a well-played game.
you should see his pressers at wimbledon 2022 and the later matches he is maturing
@@swarnabhdasgupta6572 si Kyrgios se tomara mas en serio el tenis seria uno delos 5 mejores en el rankings atp
I remember waking up at around 4 or 5 am, last year, to watch this match live. I really enjoyed myself; It was a intense match. Glad Rafa is back at the 2022 Australian Open.
Not only is he back, he won it.
He was given the tournament
@@draoicht22 nothing is given in a sport Djokovic has not always won RG in the absence of Rafa si stop being a clown
@@draoicht22 🤡
@Ashutosh Vernekar didn't see him at the RG final when he did play. Besides, that's such a bot argument.
Australian open is always making Nadal have brutal matches, damn. 2009 verdasco and federer, 2012 federer and djokovic, 2014 wawrinka, 2017 dimitrov and federer, 2020 kyrgios and thiem
2014 Wawrinka? No big 4 member. Realistically they are all usual opponents u need to play to win a slam, it's just that Federer/Djokovic wouldn't get taken to 5 by someone like Verdasco or Dimitrov.
@zakaria djouzi Yes and Nadal faced Wawrinka in the final. Nadal avoided Djokovic, he got a good draw. And no, Verdasco was not top 5, not at all. His highest rank was no7. He would've lost in straight sets to Federer had they played realistically. 2017 his draw was far easier than Federers ( Berdych, Nishikori,Wawrinka and Nadal). 2020 he did get a tough draw. But aside from that all the other draws are no harder than a usual draw.
@zakaria djouzi so, Wawrinka defeating Djokovic doesn't make him harder than Djokovic. That's like saying Federer FO 2009 was the tough because he beat the guy who beat the king of clay??
Djokovics draw was obviously worse, he faced Wawrinka 4th round and would have had to play a big 4 member is the final. Nadal matches up worse against Verdasco, he would've been beaten in straight sets by Fed. Fed has never lost to Verdasco, Nadal has numerous times to prove my point.He was not top 3 caliber, please, are you serious? Nadals draw is AO 2014 was standard, as was his AO 2009, his AO 2017 wasn't even that bad. Dimitrov, really????? That's the toughest opponent? A guy who was beaten in straight sets in round 4 of Wimbledon that year by Fed. Please, what are you talking about lol. You knows what was a tougher draw? Nadals AO 2012 draw, far tougher than any draw you've mentioned.
2017 Raonic sucked, he was injured all year. Berdych had a far better year. Get your facts straights. Raonic best result was Wimbledon, where he was destroyed by Federer??? And Federers Wimbledon 2017 draw was considered easy.
@zakaria djouzidude what u say makes no sense. I can't be arsed to argue with a guy that's saying that having to beat Wawrinka a Federer is a hard draw, yes it's hard but you should expect to always face 1 big 4 member to win a slam, maybe more. And then some solid top 10 players. What you're talking about is a normal draw
@zakaria djouzibruh have u seen the AO 2012 draw????? Berdych, Federer then Djokovic. That is a tough draw. Not Wawrinka and Federer, that's standard. Federer Wimbledon 2014, Wawrinka Raonic Djokovic standard Federer us open 2015 Wawrinka Djokovic, another standard draw. Federer Wimbledon 2015 Murray followed by Djokovic another standard draw. Federer Wimbledon 2012 Djokovic followed by Murray. These are all very common draws to win a slam. Not at all uncommon. Djokovic AO 2016, Nishikori, Federer Murray. Djokovic AO 2015, Wawrinka Murray..another normal draw. Like are u saying everyone of these slam draws are more difficult than usual......please just stop
Love how they just let the entire final set tiebreak play out!
The score here is the same as Wimbledon 2019 2nd round! 6-3, 3-6, 7-6, 7-6
illuminati confirmed :p :p :p
rigged
Much better match tho
Mark Petchy did flag it in commentary.
Thanks for spoiling the result, Einstein!
Why not just input a couple of blank lines so that the score is not visible without expanding the comment?
Nick Kygrios has one of the best serve forehand combinations of all time. He is so talented. If he had the drive he could own men's tennis. Lucky for everyone else that on a day in and day out basis he doesn't take tennis as seriously as he should.
What has Kyrgios won? he's just a crazy player with some good serves lol
@@samuelpalacios6929 He has a freakish amount of talent to be greater than the top three, Greg is saying if he didnt have a sook about losing one point he would then be world number one.
@@vinton169 😂 sureeeee
@@matthewwilliams3827i mean if you look at his match against rublev : 6:3, 6:0. Kyrgios is actually insanely good if he keeps his head in the game.
If he actually tried, he'd be a great player sure. There's no way he would own mens tennis. Talent means way more than looking cool and doing tweeners. To me he's not even half as talented as the big 3. They have the natural hand-eye coordination and flare along with more athletic talent. The social media era and the Australian media have blown this guy up into something he never was. Gael Monfils, Richard Gasquet, Nalbandian, Verdasco, Tsonga were all underachievers, all talented. But I've never seen a guy do so little for so long, ranked in the 50's or lower, come into the Australian Open and have the entire national media say "could he make a run this year", "this could be his year", "all eyes on Nick", and then tear the guy down when he doesn't get it done. If he was injury free, worked his ass off, and was all there mentally, he still couldn't touch the big 3 in their prime.
Thanks for the extended highlights AO youtube team. ♥️
Watching during lockdown.
Now that are highlights! Thanks AO! Way better than 2 min. Highlights!
FR
People when highlights are 2 minutes: BOOO MAKE THEM LONGER
The same people when highlights are 40 minutes: BOOO MAKE THEM SHORTER
AO team: Are we a joke to you?
RUclipsrs: Yes
Oblivion CST really? I think we are fine with long highlight, its actually better.
You see what i did there Personally I like longer highlights. This is just mocking this vid’s comment section.
Who said make them longer?
There is a big space between 2 minutes and 40 minutes
@@kirby4599: Who said make them shorter?
Just a suggestion: You should post these extended highlights DURING the tournament when people actually care.
Bro they dont have the rights to cuz of ESPN thats y
Thanks for the video, I used to be 5.0, got hurt and am now 1/2 paralyzed I love watching whenever however
They can’t
William Martin that sucks!
So I’ve seen the AO reply to comments others have made about this. During the tournament, broadcasters such as Nine Network (Australia) and ESPN won the rights to publish highlights in their respective countries and areas. Afterwards, however, this changes and the AO can post any highlights or footage they like.
When he does do them Rafas down the line backhands are epic, mainly cause they're unexpected.
ラファスはスペインの英雄。彼は左手で激しくテニスをすることができます。
It’s like his volleys.
With his volleys he doesn’t hit too many but when he does he almost always wins the point, because he only hits them when it actually benefits him and not just for the sake of it.
One of the best matches of the year so far and will probably remain at the top (tbh any kyrgios vs. Nadal match would probably count)
dor ryoku yeah the quality was incredible, and nick played his heart out
Kyrgios impressed me in this match and this tournament. He played 4h30 against Khachanov 2 days before and he still put Rafa in trouble and Rafa was playing very well, which means that now he's more fit and physically prepared for grand slams, I hope to see him at Roland Garros unlike last year
Me being a nick fan, really wanted him to win. But seeing his match against Karen dissapointed me. It shouldnt have taken him 5 sets to beat him. So i didnt have high hopes for him to win this match. Sry for later response :)
if kyrgios wud have won in 3 sets vs khachanov he probably wud have played at a much higher level against rafa
@@abhishekrajopadhye717 Nikki is a dunce for a tennis professional, his game would not have changed and would have lost likely the same way.
@@markuse3472 nick is in the wimbledon final now
@@calvin9187 That Wimbledon was a farce from start to finish. Nick has done precisely nothing since, except insult past generations and claim he ever could have stood a better chance in a generation such as John McEnroe's. Nick had amazing talent, still has it, but his mentality turned him into a bum in comparison to what he could have been (no top 100 is truly a bum, that is s feet in and of itself), plain and simple.
Kyrgios needs to work on his mental stamina. When he's doing well on the points, he feels confident, but when he's down, he just gives up; sucks to see this mentality in this high level tennis.
I think kyrgios has more mental stamina than several players in his level (top 40)
it is so interesting to se how he plays mentally...I think he has a lot to learn but in the other hand way stronger than any other player...he just need more self-esteem and less care about others...people who act like him has so little self-esteem... you could see that from the drop shot while he has strong enough shots to beat Nadal. 💪
It's always been Kyrgios vs Kyrgios when it comes to his attitude. His talent and skills could easily let him be within TOP10 years ago. But his mentality is constantly shutting him down. If there is any psychologist who can fix him, congrats in advance lol.
Michał nothing wrong with him, therefore no need to ‘fix him’ he just a young sports man who does very well actually 👌
Diana Vagasi why are we acting like he’s just bursted our moments ago from the junior league? He’s 25 by by which age these old guys he’s disrespecting so have won consecutive grand slams and titles all over the world. Also he, like other professional sportsmen, started decades ago in terms of training and discipline.
Incredible game both players i enjoyed too much hats off to you.
Its always a pleasure to watch Kyrgios loosing to Rafa. mostly because of the way he has spoken against him, downgrading him as an athlete and for what he is in tennis history.
I wonder how Tennis attracts such petty spectators
@@VCRider guessing you haven't seen the classless trash talk kyrgios is constantly spewing. Meanwhile Rafa is respectful even when the opponent is a jerk. seeing jerks lose is always nice :D
@@clevelandbrown5709 i like both players. If all real life villains were like nick there would be no problems on this planet.
Solid highlights - keep up the good work. Way better than the 2 minute highlights.
How many close matches that Nadal always win. Cause he is one of the legends in Tennis.
Yes, behind federer
Brilliant match from two great players.
True, rafa just has better fighting spirit in crucial moments
One great player
Josh Heinink we’ll need to give nick credit it wasn’t a walk over nice to see some of the young ones take Theese old legends on
mikes gt get fucked he’s fantastic
zakaria djouzi hes a fucking genius on court
Wish the full match was uploaded. This outstanding match deserves a full upload.
GIGANTE RAFA TODO UN CAMPEÓN, un caballero como Djokovic, Federer y no un payaso IRREVERENTE como Kyrgios, tendrá buen Tenis pero nunca como persona entrará a la Nómina de los Grandes, es irrespetuoso con el rival. GRACIAS RAFA SOS TODO UN CABALLERO
De acuerdo con casi todo, excepto que Djokovic sea un caballero. Lo es ahora, pero tiene un pasado algo similar al engreído del que hablas (hasta los canguros y los wombats tienen mejor gusto).
Great match. Nick is so good. The big 3 r a brick wall though.
But its really a shock to know that a player of Kyrgios's quality has not even reached a single grand slam final or semi-final ... there are tons of players he can beat who has reached that stage, something is wrong ...it seems he's always coming up against one of the big guys early or he gets sloppy losing to players he usually beats ...
@@88feji he lacks discipline
14:57 no one out-trick shots Nadal
Nadal is quite used to trick shots like that, Kyrgios is not the only one who knows how to feign a fake move, Fed/Novak does it often too ...
Good handshake at the end. It's good to see nick get better.
Oh man, what a day at the office for both these guys. Great match. Unh ung aagggg uhhh....
nadals aggressive strokes is awesome
I think if Kyrgios served and volleyed more he would do much better. His serve is huge! Take a page out of Sampras’s book!
the supernatural so you’re saying that nicks performance in this match is that of a terrible player? I’d like to see you do better
The only returner with good passes at the time was Agassi. Now, most of them are good at it.
Also, courts are slower nowadays
El señorío español! 🇪🇸✌️
una bestia nadal!!!
Rafael Nadal ótimo jogador!!! Parabéns.🌼🌼💚❤️🌱🦁👍🙂
28:48 This is the Kyrgios everyone has always wanted to see. Look at his active footwork, look how much effort he's putting into every shot here. Look at the emphasis on generating top spin instead of going for those stupid flat slap shots. This is serious Kyrgios. A kyrgios who isn't afraid to tell the world he's trying his absolute hardest and accepts the risk of failing after an honest attempt. I hope that, one day, I can see a whole match of this kyrgios.
Syrgios
That kyrgios consistently would be top 5

No
U will see today...
This was one of the Best match i have seen
Outstanding match!

Excelentes y nobles ambos contendientes. ¡Bravo!
Great!

Aquí esperando a mañana. Semifinal de Wimbledon después de un partido épico de Nadal y el mejor Kyrgios.
Awesome game. Today I am still surprised by Rafa's mental strength and how he manages to overcome adverse situations (although you had some luck too). And you are very talented, Nicko. If you manage to master your emotions I am sure that this will be your year. Playing like this you can beat everyone. You're your own enemy, but a gifted for this sport. Regards from Spain!
I think Kyrgios seriously have to see a psychologist, to improve his emotions and therefore his game. Great players like Nadal and Federer were very mature since their beginnings. You have to have both feet on the earth, otherwise you wont progress. In Laver Cup he argued with McEnroe, with the Judge, watching constantly the big court screen. In a nut shell: he needs to mature. Will he?
2 best australian players went full throttle at Nadal last summer
Both times they got so close but he somehow outplayed them
“this will be your year” lol a year later: has gone from world number 23 to 115. like how? remember when he was world number 13 now 115 🤦♂️ Niko why

great match
What a battle,amazing players
yes.
Nadal was playing perfect. Nick could have won anyone else that day
Really?? Nick has won 0 Grand Slam... so...

Kyrgios - The energy remover 😡
These are true competitors but in a
" positive form " 🎾💪
Nadal is so aggressive now he’s trying to end points quickly he needs to play like this against Novak on hard courts
ナダルはタイに行ったことがあります。 彼は苦いタイの若者にテニスを見せた。彼はこのショーから高い収入を得ています。
If he play like that he’ll destroy everyone
Un genio rafa.
One of Nick's best ever attempts at Rafael.
He beat him 3 times but ok
@@Tycho47: ..and lost to him 5 times, but ok.
@@notsohandytim5090 so what is your point???
Kyrgios has everything. He just needs to amp up his aggressive lethal shots. Give no chances.
I am glad that Kyrgios have a such positive attitude, he is really improving, Love him!
Kyrgios’ wiper swing forehand isn’t effective to Nadal.
It is indeed effective, kyrgios won 3 matches against Nadal
Not anymore it's not
It works though, don’t need to criticise it.
Nadal has an unusual technique, yet it works for him.
28:48 seems effective to me. The issue isn't the technique, its the player. Kyrgios's forehand technique is more than capable of outputting enough quality to beat nadal, but Kyrgios himself struggles to output that quality for an extended period of time. To be fair to him, he played a very long match against khachanov the match before and he was likely tired. We can see at 28:48 though, what happens when he really puts in that effort. His footwork was great and his preparation super early on every one of these shots. the results were world class. not everyone can approach every point with this kind of intensity though. this is what makes dominic thiem so good.
14:55 lmao 🤣
Nationwide
so interesting to see kyrgios hitting loopy balls with alots of spin off the forehand side against nadal. Its almost like he was giving some elements of nadal's playstyle a try haha. I miss his explosive powerful forehand, but I wonder if he was committed to playing way as a way to develop his rally and defense game.
not that we didn't get a see a couple nice powerful forehand from nick, but I feel like he wasn't trying to dictate the point at all from his forehand side which was weird.
of course, alternative theory, nick was just so frustrated at how slow the ball was moving at that tournament up to that point that he decided to just play super safe loopy shots and overuse drop shots as a soft from of protest XD
I had the same feeling ah ah !!
I am guessing Nick was fatigued after playing 2 extremely long matches back to back (in his experience) and just did not get enough juice to be aggressive in his Nadal encounter. Unfortunate, since Nick is such a joy to watch
@@hippios thats a good theory too. I forgot about the previous two matches and how tough they were for nick.
21:35 "but a lifetime or two of doing the right thing allows you to have some self belief" sums up the confidence and knowledge the big 3 have in their ability to win matches 20 or so years after their dawn
Nadal always had my favorite tennis style ⭐
Rafa gets up for every match. But you know that he really wanted to kick Nick's butt after he talked all that crap about him to the press.
what did he say?
@@coinrotator Nothing. Usual nadal fans that gets angry for nothing.
@@monsieurbreakdown4814 Lol, delusional,Kyrgios its a disrespectful prick sometimes, anyone knows that.
@@Man_3336 Funny how people are so used to the false world of tennis, acting and lying, that they call disrespectful prich someone that just being himself.
@@monsieurbreakdown4814 You are really sensitive. Go cry somewhere else.
Nadal was so exhausted after this match that he couldnt win the semi against Thiem. Amazing match
Thiem era uno de los 4 mejores del mundo , lo que es una pena es lo que lea pasado ahora y el puesto que ocupa en el rankings espero que con el tiempo vuelva a ser el que era antes
I love how nonchalant Nick Kyrgios is with his tweeners....
So... Nick did this after a night out 🤣 madness
Partido increible y igualado pero rafa se llevo la victoria vamos rafaaaa
13:39 backhand slomo (just for me)
Kyrgios was DOA. Nadal was on a mission to beat Nick in front of the home crowd.
Nick earned some of that respect back in this match tbh
@@BrandonSG13 he lost to his enemy in front of his home crowd. Nick was gutted...everyone else was satisfied.
30:20 "it's ridiculous" HAHAHA
This was the exact same score as wimbledon wtf
Lmao good catch lol
The best😏👌🏻
Me constantly waiting for kyrgios to slap the ball when i start watching
publishing this in 720p in 2020?
1080p60 please!
During lockdown they reduced everything to 480p after the lift you can watch it
Exciting match! I am sure Kyrgios could possible be in top 5 if he want to.
Any player that can beat Nadal... on any surface... deserves my respect.
The ads drove me crazy.
I love nadal
When Nick puts in full effort, you're in for a treat of a match. He's pushing any player, doesn't matter who you are.
CONGRATULATIONS
Great match from Nadal!
NICK & NEYMAR
SHOULD MEET
Respecting confidence over quality - is a metaphor as to why Australia is failing as a country in 2020.
Always love seeing nicks opponent win... whoever it is lol. 😂😅 but Nadal has a poor ace game. Is it this match in particular or all matches? Always watch the shorter highlights
« A Quick success brings ego, a slow success brings humility »
Nadal won the French open when he was 19😂 I hope slow success didn’t refer to him
最高だよラファ！！
In the beginning Nadal was smart to hammer Kyrgios’s back hand, should have continued to do so.
This match eased the tension between these two after the fiesty Wimbledon clash of 2019.
720p video from 2020?
Nadals footwork thou
Nadal was so good in this match, if this was djokovic to play against kyrgios, the result could be different. In this AU, Djokovic was at a much easier draw than Nadal
Particularly impressed with how Nadal repeatedly caught Nick by surprise with his serve ... usually its the other way around ... and Nadal definitely returned Nick's nuclear serves extremely well during this match !
Noticed something..Nada rarely had any expressions very unlike him.... kyrgios actually feeds on that
It was classic! ......
As a Rafan, he would probably be more efficient if he hit some flat balls down the line, like he did in 2010.
I feel like it's also the key to beating djoko on hardcourts, like how he did it in 2010 and 2013
@@user-pi9mw8mk7p Exactly
@@atptouracademy1121 his forehand shots now are a bit predictable and often land too short with high bounces, making it easy for players to attack
@@user-pi9mw8mk7p Yup, though I think it depends on the surface and conditions like on fast surfaces like the US Open he was hitting them quite low and hard.

Funny that both players had chances to win match as(s) two tiebreaks in 3,4th sets occured. tie=break you know is quick up-and-down blitz round with lottery tickets of luck
Nick was desperated after initial set then could win set in 3rd set tiebreak and match in 4th set "sudden death" blitz.
22:53 ちゃんと謝れてえらいねニック
teh best player and fighter after djokovic so phenomenal
Si Nadal hubiese tenido el saque de kyrgios, habría sido invencible
The tennis is good
Kyrgios skills and physics getting closer and closer to the top 5 i think with little more luck and better game planning in 2 to 3 years he be the best player in the world
Nick is great player he can match up.many top players and win the tournament if he is serious
Nafal is like Pele but in the tenis ,the best in the history
if kyrgios had less topspin and more flat forehand and a more topspin backhand, he would easily win slams
Amo nadal, ver ele vencer é maravilhoso e vencer o insuportável do Nick é SENSACIONAL
