To be fair, that is a Djokovic specialty, and Nadal has less comebacks from 2 sets to 0 in grand slams than any other member of the big 4, never mind big 3
@@Grainsworth Djokovic's comeback always features players weaker than him, where he shouldnt even be 0-2 down, examples being Sinner wimbledon 2022 and Djere US open 2023. Nadal always comeback from way tougher conditions, either he hasnt played for long time or his opponent currently in better form. Nadal's comeback is always the most inspiring and unimaginable, whereas Djokovic's comeback is mostly his redemption of mistakes earlier in the match. People didnt praise Nadal as the gladiator for no reason.
This is the difference between the champions and those who are just really good players. Champions have that “it” factor or killer instinct or whatever you call it.
After watching all these years of tennis, it won't be wrong to say Nadal is the best ever in the tennis courts. Like the tactician Ali, in boxing, Nadal finds ways to beat his opponents. If not for his constant injuries, he would have won many more Grand Slams. If all the losses esp the semis and finals in the Grandslams, as have been noticed, were mainly due to lack of adequate or no training and preparation due to prior injuries. It is no joke to come back from the brink of defeat and win the match. How he did It? Australian Open 2022 is one prime example. Youngsters must learn from Nadal as how to recover from failure and make success in life.
That face Nadal made at 4:33 meant more than just a face. It meant... Enough playing. Time to awaken the inner strength of Nadal. It also teaches his opponents a lesson that in the future if they see Nadal make that face it will most likely mean they're about to get obliterated.
Tiene Nadal el mejor servicio? No. El mejor resto? No. El mejor drive? No. Lo que tiene Nadal, es la mentalidad, estrategia y concentración más potentes del mundo con diferencia. Indiferentemente de los resultados que logre con ello. En su cabeza no existe el marcador, existe el punto a punto, del primero al último. El no entra en esa ilusión de darse por vencedor o vencido hasta que acaba ese último punto. Ese es el factor que le hace estar en el olimpo del tenis. Simple y literalmente épico
How many times did Rafa do this to his opponents I wonder. I remember he did this in RG too when he was about to lose the first set when down 5-1 but came back to win it.
Danill is getting up in the years. Even in this tournament he almost lost to FAA, a much younger opponent. It's not impossible that by the time Rafa and Novak retire, Med has already been upended by the next kids.
I think this might be tougher because with this Medvedev only has to win 1 game to win the match, but in the Australian open the opponent would still have to win a full set to claim the victory. Regardless, both are incredible and show the determination of Nadal.
@@justinjerrylee1659 Thank you for pointing that out. I feel that the Australian open this year was his greatest comeback ever. Everything about that match said he was going to lose, and somehow he pulled out the third set, and ultimately won.
It was sad that he did this and won his other match vs Tsitsipas but still didn't get through to the semi's because he lost to Zverev and Tsitsipas beat Zverev
What a great match this was. I almost never take Nadal for granted but I remember in this match I thought it was over. Once again he proved otherwise… nothing but admiration.
Incredible that he and Medvedev had two brilliant matches in the ATP finals where each came back from the brink of defeat. Medvedev paid back the favor in 2020 when Nadal won set 1 and serving for the match in set 2.
@@z1az285 yeah that's true, it's almost like inverted versions of the same match, and in the AO final Nadal made another miraculous comeback against Medvedev and it's actually v similar to the US Open Final in 2019 for Medvedev except ofc Nadal actually completed the comeback.. It's funny , their whole head to head, five matches now, if u go backwards is almost completely inverted lol, if Medvedev wins the next match easily then their whole head to head front to back will basically be inverted: straight set victory by one, out of nowhere two sets to love come back in slam final to even it, and ATP finals comeback from nowhere two years back to back. doesn't mean anything and is obviously coincidental but kinda funny.
@@AnthonyHirsch Absolutely. I was getting shades of 2019 though when rafa came back from a long injury layoff. I was going, oh no but thank goodness rafa flipped a switch
None is able to come back facing such good players and in such a breathtaking way, he is the true GOAT. ❤ Never gives up. Wait for your comeback Rafa, viva España 🇪🇸
@@shaan8032 i know what you are saying but rafa just fought back ferociously in australia. i think he should have maybe won the second set, and he felt like he didn’t leave it all out there if he went in 3. for his own satisfaction, he upped his level, realized it’s working and went all the way. truly a special night but i wouldn’t say medvedev was influenced by events in 2020. he just gave rafa enough for him to capitalize ruthlessly.
Danil todavía no puede cerrar un partido decisivo vs Rafa Pasó en el Us Open, en las ATP Finals y ahora en Australia Open Grande Rafa, y que manera épica de remontar
Novak is also GOAT, lets not forget that the 3 of them have dominated so much all in one era. Theres 3 GOATs and its upto peoples opinions to decide who is their GOAT. However at the end of their careers, the numbers and statistics will most likely point towards Novak to be considered the all time greatest. Personally, Federer is always gonna be my favourite but im just stating facts here.
@@yusufluhar5881 tend to agree a bit. but have to consider the opposition Rafa faced during his career. the first half, it was prime federer, and in the second half its the prime novak and he still succeeded in getting equal or more GS than them. Rafa was unlucky couple of times in AUS before and couple of times in wimbledon before. else he would be 25 GS now.
Seriously he’s the only player I constantly keep seeing doing unbelievable comebacks almost frequently

Wonderful match. Bravo to Rafa!!!
Nunca des muerto a Nadal !!
Medvedev lo ha vivido en sus carnes dos veces !!
Y nalbandian también una vez en Indian Wells y acabó ganando el torneo.
i remember something like 10-13 years ago Nadal made another fantastic comeback in similar fashion, i think it was against Nalbandian
I remember for sure in 2011 he was 5-1 down at the FO - but that was just the first set

Nadal is Medvedev nightmare
King Nadal
Medvedev hasnt learn the lesson hahahaha
Such great match
Can’t even imagine what was in Medvedev s head in the end of the match
Ya, i was thinking why no one actually talked about it during AO. He had done it to Medvedev
Then in 2022 Aus Open Final Nadal did the same to Medvedev incredible 👍
How Ridiculous Nadal is. How could he do that. Mind blowing 😇
Nadal is a true fighter!
Unbelievable temprament ! Luv u !
This is a gift for everyone who says Rafa is not good on hard court!
Comeback King
Nadal has Medvedevs number.
this match made Rafa even more unrealistic.
Este día Medvedev no aprendió la lección
King!!!
Mentalmente Nadal es el 1, eso que mi predilección por Nole es enorme
it figures why he din't lose hope when they played in australia. he seems to know the russian's game
Vamos Rafa 💪 🙌
INSPIRATIONAL! Nadal shows us how to never give up.
Similar like today
Nadal ainda está voando baixo 👏👏
No wonder AO2022 Nadal won by come from behind win.
Por esto y más eres el más grande

The surface of this tournament should have rotated each year making it more fair to all
I wonder if this and the 2019 US Open helped his fortitude when things looked hopeless at this 22 Aussie Open
Solo un español como Nadal puede realizar esa hazañ
There he goes..
And it has always been Medvedev who has lost like this 😂😂
This guy destroyed med mentally. Don’t think he’s been the same since aussie
Solo existen dos grandes, Nadal y Federer.
My idol, Rafa
DON RAFAEL NADAL PARERA🇪🇸🐐
