During Rafas peak he had to come up through and take out peak peak Fed, and then immediately after deal with peak peak Nole. The toughest competition out of everyone by a mile.
Yeah something just wasn’t right with roddick I mean he doesn’t usually make over 20 unforced errors in a match - nadal didn’t really have to play that well to win here I’ve seen Andy play much better in the past
ِِِAt 2011 US Open It was the other way around. Nadal had to play his best just to take just one set in the final against Djokovic. Nadal didn't have any chances at all against Novak then
Best form Nadal is better than best form djokovic it's evident in the earlier stages of their careers because Nadal reached his prime way earlier than djokovic.. Or dopovic should I say. When Nadal won his career slam having 9 majors djoko was on 1. Same goes for federer prime federer much better than djokovic
@@HILAL19564 I agree. Djokovic did not win any GS between AO 2008 and AO 2011. That is 3 years. During that time he barely made one GS final. That is between the ages of 21-24. Who made GS finals and won them in that period? Nadal and Federer. The main difference between them is that when Nadal and Federer won their first GS, they continued to win at an astonishing and very consistent rate, year after year. For Djokovic there was that 3 year period between his first and second, where he was just playing 3rd fiddle to them. Also, Djokovic had 12 GS in the summer of 2018, only 5 years ago and now he has 23. So he won half his GS in the last 5 years. Some people say that Federer won half of his slams in a "weak" era. If that is true, then so did Djokovic.
Dude Nadal looks so young and fresh faced. I can't believe he's retiring next year. So much can change over what seems like a short time. Feels like this was just a few years ago.
By this moment in time Andy Roddick had been supplanted by Mardy Fish as the top ranked US player, and this match for all intents and purposes finished Roddick's career. He played hurt most of 2011 with an oblique injury and his court movement had slowed. He retired in early 2012. What's weird is just a year before he'd beaten Novak Djokovic in Montreal in an ATP 1000 match. A quick drop off in a year due to injuries and seeing players like Federer, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray dominate the game so thoroughly.
although he was only 29 here, roddick's movement was off at this point of his career; but even at his best, s&v against nadal would be straight up suicide.
So many limitations on Andy Roddick game, but look at him one year before retirement on quarter finals of the usopen again, thats better than half of the current top8 roster, he was a warrior and in no way a free game for his opponents
wouldn't say he's overrated he came from the Pete Sampras style, when Pete was at the end. there really wasn't that big of a tennis name at that time besides Serena/Williams, so people ran with Roddick for a bit
Roddick is not overrated. He came in a transition era with his style being out of ..style quickly and with his prime coexisting with Federer's prime. He has several wins against Nadal and also a winning record against Djokovic.
No one could overrate Roddick. His 30s professional trophies, USO Champ and the No. 1 ranking is real. Everyone has up and down, short or lengthy prime.
People have been spoiled by this era and think that winning a grand slam now is easy. It doesn't matter what era you're in, you're still playing professionals. Roddick got 1 GS and was runner-up in a handful of others. He's certainly not among the GOAT convo, but he's a Hall of Famer no doubt.
@@pleaseenteraname1103 Different reasons; At this point in 2011 Roddick was struggling with players far worse than Nadal. Not saying a prime Roddick beats Nadal here (as much as Nadal is a superior player, prime Roddick's serve and forehand gives him a shot against anyone) but I was surprised Roddick made it this far (he lost to Tipsarevic in the 3rd round in 2010). AO 2007 SF's. Where do I begin; Federer fans will say it was an unstoppable performance, but Roddick contributed heavily. IMO, neither are his worst slam showings. Wimbledon 2003 SF was even worse; He was serving at 38% for the majority of the match. Completely donked that one off.
@@pleaseenteraname1103roddick played much better that Australians opens day: a much more powerful forehand (lots of rallies), backhand, speed and serve Besides this Nadal almost lost to Murray next match(he struggled a lot having even less winners than Murray) unlike this one where he absolutely destroyed roddick in the winners department (roddick made I think 3 or 4 the whole match😵😵😵😵😵😵) It was probably the most one sided match ever: probably to Roddick really poor movement and power after outplaying Ferrer in the previous round

At 29, Roddick looked like an old man. I don’t think he enjoyed this match at all. He seemed helpless.

All dopaltards here. Just let Nadal at least take a set from Djokovic on HC😂
Why does he always get injured before facing Djokovic? Coincidence?😂😂

A few 13 years ago
And no he won't retire... Mark my words
short time? 13 years is longer than most careers, let alone rafa had been a pro for 7 years at the time of this clip

Thank you US OPEN for posting these vids, plus no announcers!!
Sorry For Roddick , at least he tried , ! He was a Great Tennis Player , Never Forgotten . 🎾
Pero si ese solo es un producto como otro mas de la basura que producis en usa....ese,aparte de sacar fuerte que mas tiene de tenis,NADA,,,,
ese roddick aparte de sacar fuerte de TENIS no tenia NADA...
@@javierturcamaro6883agreed, and he kept feeding nadal on his forehand
Can we please get Roddick's R4 (2011 USO) match against Ferrer?
although he was only 29 here, roddick's movement was off at this point of his career; but even at his best, s&v against nadal would be straight up suicide.
he had a stomach bug during this tournament

I guess Andy didn’t stand a chance 😭
You guessed well
Yeah especially when he was making over 20 unforced errors in this match pretty much gifted the win to nadal really
❤❤❤❤
Andy Roddick will never forget this match 🙄😏👏 Rafa
Roddick gets liquified in this match
tennis.
This is prime Nadal and joker owned him
Roddick...one of the most overrated tennis players. Embarassed by Nadal.

@@LLisLawsome He achieved those accolades when there was zero competition. Maybe he is not overrated, but just never could get into his game.

This match was Andy’s worst match ever
Okay, Borg, calm down...
What about 2007 Australian open semi finals? he got destroyed by Roger.
