Our warrior is battling. It is a marathon! We are with you You can do it! YOU BROKE DJ! Vamos our champion.
I’ve become a rapper! Ace Ace Baby! Come on Rafa close it out!
LOL Ziggy, I did something similar, but I skipped “baby” when Rafa served.
I am bad, I was hoping for DF when Rafa received quite often.😂
Rafa has reverted to type against Novak i.e. he’s playing like he’s desperate. Novak is playing the brain game and conserving what energy he has for the one set shoot out. Get it together champ and don’t over-press.
Yup. Djokovic is firmly in Rafa’s head now. Rafa is forcing things and overplaying.
Calm down and simply do what you do champ!
Margo he is back to his best…Broke him n consolidated the break…What a backhand on 2nd break point
