It was awesome to see Rafa play again! He looked great. He is the best?
Of course Rafa is the best – for me – of the 3 tennusplayers making history. But he is for sure the best of comebacks!!¡¡¡
Out of curiosity. Could I please ask if anyone has the below matches? They’re not on tennisTV. Both Rafa wins over Dopeovic, not finals. Doesn’t matter about the commentary language.
2006 RG SF
2007 Wimblers SF
Was lucky enough to get 2007 Rome QF from TennisTV but the two above, remain elusive apart from ropey quality highlights.
Oh. Sugar. I meant 2006 RG QF not SF. Dopeovic retired after two sets. Haha.
He also retired from the Wimblers 2007 SF after three sets. Haha.
TennisTV doesn’t have these matches.
What I’m after, if anyone would be so kind as to share these, are…..
2006 RG QF
2007 Wimblers SF
Cheers.
That was a great match by Nadal until we realize that everyone beat up on Thiem these days.
Congratulations Rafa n all Rafans here. Finally a joy for us after painful last year
Wow is the word of the day. Rafa was very sharp and what great serves! Wow
Just finished watching that match. Oh my giddy aunt. That was incredible. My face is sore from smiling.
Somebody can tell me where I can see the reply of the match free of charge. You all enjoyed watchibg and me… I didn’t have the confidence in Rafa’s successful ending of the match.
Would be fine !¡♡
For free? You could torrent it. Slightly illegal though. If you do this, make sure you have a VPN.
TennisTV doesn’t cost that much, in truth. There’s a huge back catalogue of matches on there too. Plus, I’ve found a rather nifty way of downloading the TennisTV streams to watch offline, 1080p. If you’re a paid up member. Won’t work if you haven’t paid for TennisTV.
Thanks Dunccancel, I was member of Tennis TV for the past 8 years…
Dunccancel. Lol.
