Nadal beat Djokovic 7-6(4), 6-3 and will now set his sights on an eighth title in Rome. Thinking this might not take that long from here. Whatever happens, Djokovic has shown his basic level is getting back to where it was, and his desire is there. But physically, not yet. - David Law (@DavidLawTennis) The greatest rivalry in the Open Era! Nice win for today in Italy. I knew would be back, and he’s nearly there - a great thing for tennis. The next installment of this rivalry will be equally tantalizing! - Andrew Prochnow (@AndrewProchnow) I forgot how fast my heart beats during Rafole matches.- Nadal News (@nadalnews) Doesn’t matter what happens from here on out—Djokovic is now one of the few legitimate threats to Nadal at Roland Garros. To even stretch Rafa to a tiebreak on clay this season is saying something. Welcome back. - Ed McGrogan (@EdMcGrogan) « Today I played against one of the best players of the history of this sport : that is the challenge », Nadal when asked what makes Novak tougher than others to play against.- Carole Bouchard (@carole_bouchard) Djokovic 2018 is basically Nadal 2016.
Fighting and scrapping against the fading of the light in their careers. Nadal did it successfully. Looks increasingly like Djokovic will, too.- David Law (@DavidLawTennis) Djokovic: "For people watching on TV, they don't see it. But it's a huge difference playing against Nadal against the wind. If you don't hit the ball in the exact spot he's there, on top of the ball" - Ubitennis (@Ubitennis) Make Tennis Great Again - Ricky Dimon (@Dimonator) Novak Djokovic will leave the top 20 for the first time in almost 12 years but lord, at this level, he will comeback soon.- José Morgado (@josemorgado) Let me tell you that the next generation is going to have some tremendous work to do on and off the court to create the passion we've seen again today around Nadal and Djokovic. There's a Royal Legacy to be worthy of post Big 4.- Carole Bouchard (@carole_bouchard) The exchange at the net was really nice - Genny SS (@genny_ss) That handshake at the net was splendid. That's what is called respect between two legends.- Carole Bouchard (@carole_bouchard) Djokovic keeping this one much closer than I would have anticipated but in the end it's Nadal who wraps it up 7:6 6:3 (1 hour 56 minutes).
Nadal to face either Cilic or Zverev in the finals. Promising last two matches from Djokovic tho. - René Denfeld (@Renestance) What a set that was. It's so great to see Djokovic yelling at people again.- Tumaini Carayol (@tumcarayol) Rome SF: Novak Djokovic (SRB) injects some life into both himself and the French Open, but Rafael Nadal (ESP) still shows who's boss--and king--on clay with a 7-6(4), 6-3 victory- Ricky Dimon (@Dimonator) Djokovic was so much closer than many would have thought in that match! Somebody has worked like crazy to get back on track. So nice to see.- Carole Bouchard (@carole_bouchard) The bad news: Novak Djokovic is out of the top 20. The good news: this could be a good opportunity to create a World Tour Finals event for players ranked 20-28. I'd watch. - Tumaini Carayol (@tumcarayol) How much tennis has missed this rivalry! So much nostalgia ? - Vaibhav Manocha (@BeingMinchu) In their 51st meeting (and their 1st in just over a year), d. Novak Djokovic 76(4) 63 in the SF at . Nadal inches closer to leveling their head-to-head, which Djokovic still leads 26-25. Nadal must win the title to reclaim World No.1 on Monday.- ATP Media Info (@ATPMediaInfo) Load More
