Emotional Rollercoaster

As long as he gives his all, I don’t care if Rafa loses 0-6 0-6 0-6, he will still go out as a great champion in my eyes. And when has Rafael Nadal ever given less than his all? – Kuhtak1980

Unpredictable Conditions

I was in the stadium for this, roof was closed, the trapped air was so humid and dense I actually found myself dozing off despite the brutal level of tennis on display. Extremely trying conditions so it was not super surprising when this happened. – Papachips
