    Djoker breaks Nadal to lead 5-3. Can he hold for the set? Down 0-15

    Excellent game so far. Pretty upset I will have to turn this off soon and switch to MNF on ESPN.

    A British tennis columnist was saying if this goes to 5 sets, Nadal will have the edge.

    Djoker breaks Nadal at love to start the 3rd set. I don;t expect Djoko to hold onto this all set .

    I'm going to flip back and forth betwene MNF and tennis. This match is amazing tennis

    Question, is this the best era of men's tennis in a long time? You had Nadal dominating clay and learning other surfaces, the back end of Federer's career, Djokovic's unbelievable year thrown in there, and Murray hanging around. To me the talent is outstanding and the gap between when those 4 (now 3 soon) are at their best and the rest is unbelievable.

    they did this last year also I think with rain pushing the men's final on Monday

    I really hate events at 5 PM. Bad time of day to start.

    Did Nadal slip in the last play? If Djoker returned the shot, Nadal wouldn't be able to reach.

    I guess an argument could be made Nadal is GOAT over Federer. Especially since he's closing in on Fed's GS

    I'm a Federer fan even though he single handedly stopped Roddick from some Wimbledons

    Nadal has a ways to go to surpass Federer, but you could argue Nadal as the top clay courter of all time (top 5 overall)
