Joker n roger r favourite before the tournament but its seems rafa go deep now who know our champ can win this ao fingre crossed?

Should be straight forward. Vamos Rafa all the best ❣️❣️

Rafa please make this quick,save your body for the semis and for the finals

Rafa in 3

Rafa all the way

One and only Rafa Nadal will win straight sets

I like Tiafoe but i get the feeling Nadal will win in 3, gradually improving every match.

Rafa is gonna pepper that weak backhand to submission. Sorry guys but Rafa will win with ease.

He matches nowhere to today's Rafa.... Will be in straights,vamos bull ?

Rafa in comfortable straight sets and then he will end tsitsipas phenomenal run as well. Grand slam number 18 on the way. Surely Djokovic cannot beat him in his current form...

Another training drill for rafa. No 18

For youngsters, its a very tough matchup against Rafa. Very difficult to match the intensity that Rafa brings to the court, point after point. Takes heavy toll both physically and mentally.

Trueman...woww...dreaming with open eyes...amazing...
i never understand this critiscism for nadal...he has achieved alot in tennis...he is humble...he has never thrown or thrash his racket just like roger...even after losing he stays smiling with fans...
he has all.the elements to beat anyone...novak rafa roger...all of them are superb...some win some lose they are on top of each other on thier day
but most of the ppl here always think rafas gonna lose..rafa is not playing well...rafa is scratching nd all bullshit..
wats the logic to hate player like rafa or roger or novak...wats wrong guys...
everyone was praising tiafoe before this match...nd see now wats happening

Go goat rafa

Good luck rafa ❤️❤️

One tough set and that's the best I think tiafoe can do against Rafa. Clearly Rafa is improving his odds match by match

...it is good that Nadal don't underestimate his opponent like some of us do

Nadal and his butt scratching community can be happy for today. Tsitsipas will kick his butt hard in the semis for sure. Tennis needs a new and young champion. No more should 30+ old guys win slams. Men's tennis is rotting. I am fully supporting Tsitsipas for AO 19...

Always interesting to see players meet for the first time. I am all in for Rafa. But hope Tiafoe makes a good showing. He's worked hard to get here.

Nadal

Another training drill for rafa. No 18

@hemant this tournament rafa only had to play two top 15s to win grandslam i.e. fed and djoker... now it will be tsitsipas and djoker. It was the lowest top 15s to championship from each quarter but it's nt his fault.. thts how it is

Only if we get a Novak - Rafa final, we will see whose road to the finals work out the best for them. One can have tough matches, which help mentally more for the final, or you can have easy matches, which make you more rested for the final.

Next match will tough one but rafa will do it

Thank God the the new serve is working well! Poor serve cost him the match vs Nole at wimby18!

Another straight sets affair for Rafa

I like Tiafoe but love Rafa, you better bring it Rafa...should be straightforward...Dimitrov made alot of errors too

Rafa in 1..

@Varun: The court this year is slow due to the change of balls compared to the previous years. Nadal is the hands down favorite. Djokovic needs to pull his A+ game to have a chance. I have always felt Nadal will win his second AO before Fed wins his second French. This year it is looking good for Nadal.

How is Frances crap? He has beaten Kevin and Dimi - he is having a great run so far.
