      No. 2019USO and 2022AO were superior to 2008W and 2012AO. 2008W was the exact same situation as 2019USO when Rafa was ahead 2-0 sets and should have won the 3rd set but almost choked. Federer played HORRIBLY in the first 2.5 sets in 2008W, unlike Medvedev in 2019USO. 2022AO drama was also more fascinating than 2008W and 2012AO. Nadal had no business winning 2022AO but pulled off the miracle.
      2019USO had so much S&V and net points by both players. It was like watching an old 1980s Grand Slam final it was that cool and unique. Nadal and Medvedev played more S&V and net points in the 2019USO F than Federer and Djokovic at the 2019W F!!!

    The greatest matches of all time in each Grand Slam all have involved Nadal. In my opinion this is the greatest US Open match I have seen (2009 Federer vs Del Potro final is a close second). The best Wimbledon match ever was the 2008 final between Federer and Nadal, the best Australian Open match ever is the 2012 final between Djokovic and Nadal (the 2009 semifinal between Verdasco and Nadal is a close second). And the best French Open match ever was a semi-final between Djokovic and Nadal in 2013. But the point here is Nadal is super entertaining to watch and has had so many wars of attrition!

    An aspect that is overlooked in Nadal's game is his incredible net game, he is perhaps the best net player in the current lineup, not only does he have an amazing touch he is also one of the most consistent at the net, you can clearly see it here he made 50 plays out of 60 at the net, 17 out of 20 serve and volleys that is an incredible stat against such a good baseliner like Medvedev, he also made some pretty good stats and made some incredible volleys against Thiem at the French Open where volleying is super hard.
    Nadal's backhand volley and smash is one of the best in the history of the game, his forehand volley is little bit worse than his backhand volley but is still also quite good and gets the job done.

      Gherbi Hicham he does have an incredibly good volley, perhaps what makes it so overrated is he doesn’t over do it
      A reason why those stats are so good is that Nadal only comes to the net when he is sure that it will benefit him, he never panics and runs in, or randomly decides to come in

      The sheer beauty of it is that it's mostly self taught, his uncle was his trainer. Rafa's a natural righty. However, since he has a huge advantage being left handed playing, he taught himself to play left at his uncle's encouragement. That's why you see him with occasional one handed back hands. His forehand goes to the weaker back hand the vast majority of time on most other opponents. Give him a huge advantage in numerous ways. Less running around, a nearly equal backhand, and more.
      He's probably my favorite all time player, mostly, I admit for the fact that he's won the French 12 freaking times which is an unbelievable feat. Djoker has 7 Australians, Federer 8 Wimbledons, and Federer has 5 US opens. Borg is second at the French, which is often regarded as the toughest. For one person to win 12 in nothing short of phenomenal.

      @mainemceachern1521 4 года назад +42

      John Randall Banks Uncle Toni has debunked this myth - he’s stated that he never forced/encouraged Rafa to play left handed as an advantage. Rather, Rafa initially played with both hands on the racket and evinced a certain ambidexterity in tennis, so he told his nephew that no real tennis player played with both hands and he encouraged him to play whatever way came more naturally (one handed). In the end Rafa wound up keeping his left hand on the racket for forehands. The “lefty forehand to righty backhand” advantage is also a myth, because consider the inverse: most tennis players are right-handed, so their forehands go to the lefty’s backhand. I.e. there’s no relative advantage. The only possible advantage I can think of is that lefties have against righties is that most break points are played from the ad court, from which side a lefty server has an easier time of striking a serve out wide, pulling the returner off the court, while the righty would mostly be hitting serves up the T from the ad court (and this “advantage” presupposes that wide serves are more effective than T serves).

    That’s 7 major wins outside of clay. John McEnroe won 7 majors and he’s considered one of the greatest players ever. Nadal has now reached 15 major finals outside of clay, 10 masters 1000 titles on hard courts, Olympic Gold on a hard court and is now a 4 Time US Open champion with the career grand slam. But he’s still just a “claycourter” ???😂😂😂

    When people say Nadal is just brute force and no technique, or that he doesn't volley well, they should look at this moment: 35:24
    Nadal won the first two sets, but then Medvedev somehow recovered with very agressive and inspired play. He took the next two sets, and everything was going to be decided in the fifth. But it was Medvedev who had the momentum in his favour, so at the beginning of the last set Nadal had to face a very difficult moment: first serving with 0-30, then with 15-40 and two break points to save. In both of those crucial points, he went to the net and finished the point with a touch volley. You have to be very confident in your volley skills to do that.

    This was easily one of the 10 greatest matches ever played. Incredible that Medvedev almost came back from 2 breaks down AGAIN in that 5th set. . . This match, in my opinion, put Nadal in the lead for the greatest player of all time. 1 major away from Roger, but he's 5 years younger and he has an olympic gold medal

      Technically he has 2 gold medals, but one is in doubles

    In a way Medvedev had nothing to lose, Nadal had everything to protect - so in mental game it was toughest for Nadal, which is even more remarkable that in crucial last moments he was able to stay focused. Thats why his the true champ. I don't think Daniil or anyone would have the nerves of steel if they were in Rafas shoes - the mental pressure is crazy on him.

      Nadal had exactly the same experience in the 2008 Wimbledon final. 2-0 set lead squandered. He had triple break point at third set 3-3, 0-40 on Federer's serve and could not break Federer during that game. He was serving last in the fifth set and was surviving every single service game while Federer was winning all his fifth set service games 40-0 or 40-15 except at 7-7 when Nadal barely squeaked past Federer and finally broke him.

      @@nogoodnameleft Yes I've seen that Wimbledon match. thats why his mental ability is out of this world and makes him the true GOAT in my eyes.
