I mean Nadal made him play one.more.shot and Thiem never made the volley. Nadal masterfully wolfed down that chance - he has taken the 1st set.

ugh this guy will never lose

Nadal is great at finding a way through you - he can just work you out eventually. Probably the best I'll ever see at this.

and yup, bathroom break - let the cunt stew on it
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 14:14 (five years ago) link
Early break - took a while but got it. This is pretty much over.

ack. expected though (at least after that first set loss)
Nadal is a beast.

man Nadal 0-30 and what a point from Rafa. Toe to toe and the most wonderful down the line, its now 30-30
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 14:39 (five years ago) link
And he eventually wins that game - time and again..

One last push from Thiem..fantastic rally at 0-15 from Nadal and then a winner just inside the line. Some terrific rallies even at this point.

haha drop shot for BP Thiem - like I say, one last push
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 14:51 (five years ago) link
drop shot back created the opening to save it
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 14:53 (five years ago) link
and another one

Watching Nadal when he's like this is incredibly exhausting.

Yeah - ruthless. Although I think Thiem has given us a better final than last year, which isn't saying much.
Nadal serving for the 2nd.

One set away. Your optimist says many things are possible in life - well get him here to talk us through how Thiem is going to win from here?
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 15:06 (five years ago) link
Thiem came through in that first game with a gorgeous BH winner but is facing another BP here.
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 15:22 (five years ago) link
and he works him over again..
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 15:27 (five years ago) link
Right I'm off, its been not so fun. Really wished I watched the final yesterday (although I am not as upset, Thiem will win a slam once Rafa gets injured again...or dies 'lol')
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 10 June 2018 15:29 (five years ago) link
rafa has some sort of hand injury....
― k3vin k., Sunday, 10 June 2018 15:33 (five years ago) link
he doesn't look great now
― k3vin k., Sunday, 10 June 2018 15:35 (five years ago) link
Nadal can't hold his racquet because his fingers are cramping but he's still winning points. That is the kind of match this is.
