If Nadal wins this set, Fed won't be the consensus GOAT

Probably depends on how their careers finish up. If Nadal wins no more slams I still think Fed is the GOAT. However with this sort of form Nadal may still have another French or 2 in him.

 

[Sax Russel]

Post limit too low for how much energy Fed needs

 

[autumnleaf]

Nice gamesmanship from Federer. Classy.

Pat Cash going mental about it on the radio haha, blatantly saying its cheating.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

They've both won 110 points of 220. Fitting.

 

[Slaythe]

Fed PLEASE

Yeah, what it does is make the debate more interesting. Lots of factors, but really, it's the slam record and Tour finals that edge it for me in Federer's favour. The H2H is a huge mark against Federer, though.

 

[Moobabe]

Those differences in winners and unforced errors are crazy. Fed will kick himself for a looong time if he loses this.

Nadal doesn't hit a lot of unforced errors though, he never has. His game is about forcing the other guy to make errors through pressure.

 

[Leonsito]

Federer is onroute to 36, he's in the brink of retiring, Nadal still has a few more years imo.

 

[Tekniqs]

Well if fed drops this opening game... Stick a fork in it

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Great point from Nadal, staying in that to force the error.

 

[JBwB]

Come on Fed! Overcome this pressure!

 

[perfectchaos007]

Guys Nadal looks re-energized. What was in that energy bar?

 

[Slaythe]

And it's already over.

 

[Jubbe]

Congrats on the 15th.

 

[AdventureRacing]

Whelp. If Fed is broken here the game is over.

 

[Niraj]

Well, looking bad already.

 

[Empty]

[Omzz]

It's over

Federer gave him a MTO's worth of time to recover in. Terrible decision. Serves him right.

 

[Jubbe]

The game is obviously over when Nadal breaks.

 

[Niraj]

It's over

 

[FTF]

Old man/defeatist Federer is back, it's over :/

 

[Deleted member 231381]

[Leonsito]

Ffs Roger... You are losing this, Nadal just waits and waits for your chokes.

 

[greenleaves]

It's over. Thought it would be different this time, but it was the same story in the end.

 

[PedroPanache]

Break Back Mountain. Start the climb, Roger.

 

[Goose_Se7en]

Fucking aye, I'm going to bed. Same old fucking story. Congrats to you Rafa fans, well deserved.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

it's encouraging that even after the clusterfuck of life that was 2016 and the unceasing turmoil of these troubled times, we can rely on Fedal to deliver some few certainties in this world

 

[RedAssedApe]

Need a miracle now.

 

[mcfrank]

Fuck

 

[Smellycat]

It's over. Thought it would be different this time, but it was the same story in the end.

 

[MIMIC]

[Omzz]

My poor sleep

 

[perfectchaos007]

Bad miss there from Rafa

 

[JBwB]

Keep on crumbling Nadal!

 

[PedroPanache]

Small chance here for Fed.
