What a great semi final so far. This rivalry is the best in Tennis! They always give us epics. Fed-Nadal has given us 2 classic the rest seem like Nadal washing fed on Clay but Novak and Rafa damn near kill each other every time.

That 3rd set was huge. That set alone let's people know that Novak is back :wow:

Novak was so solid, forehand didn't break down at all even though he wasn't going for winners off it and his backhand was cooking. Nadal's forehand was on fire too, could just come down to who's able to get more easy points off of first serve cause both of them were mauling each other's second serves.

Also if they don't close the roof could be an advantage for Nadal :lupe:

How does this work? Players get a say but what if one chooses open and other close?

Just found this:

The tournament rules for the Wimbledon fortnight dictate that the roof, once closed, must remain closed until the end of the match, so some matches may be completed indoors even though the sun has re-emerged.[11]

As of right now,
Novak is 26-25 against Rafa
He's 23-22 against Roger
:wow:

He was in his prime & started to catch both of them on the down side of their careers :yeshrug:

He's a beast though.

:ufdup:

Fed was on the downside; Nadal's only a year older than Novak. :ufdup:
Prime Novak is the greatest player of all time and Fed himself said at the time he was playing his best tennis and had no answer whatsoever to Djokovic. Djokovic peak years he was besting Rafa and Fed plus Murray as well, no other player had to contend with that, also look at the players he had beat in Slam finals compared to say Fed who was beating journey men early on.
