- Internetopinion, on 09/08/2008, -1/+17Nadal is very humble and respectful off the court. He praises his opponents and always mentions how he's working harder to improve. On the court he is a fierce competitor and will try his absolute best on every point played. You guys need to watch this guy more. He's an amazing tennis player and seems like a great guy.
- LR2_, on 09/08/2008, -1/+16Ok, here's how it is.
Federer: Awesome guy, and even more awesome tennis player.
Roddick: Douche
Nadal: Looks like a douche. (really, Nadal is probably a pretty cool guy. There's just something about his face that makes him look like a douche.) - coopaloop, on 09/07/2008, -1/+16I was hoping for another Fed-Nadal final like WImbledon and the French. Ahh well... Murray deserved it he completely outplayed a flat Nadal.
- photogold, on 09/07/2008, -2/+17fantastic ! Murray is getting better and better
- splinteredmind, on 09/08/2008, -4/+14Yeah Nadal is an arrogant shmo.
- jamauss, on 09/08/2008, -0/+10For those of you thinking this won't be as good as a Nadal vs. Federer final - Murray's record against Federer is a winning one - 2-1. If Murray plays as well against Federer as he did against Nadal the match could go the distance. This won't be a gimme for Federer.
If Federer wins - he'll be the first man in history *EVER* to win 2 different majors 5 times in a row. Oh, and this US Open marks his 18th straight slam where he's made the SemiFinals or better....absolutely ridiculous record. - ganymede2010, on 09/08/2008, -2/+12Splendid... This chap could be the first Britt to win a major Tennis championship since 1936, bloody great!
- LoganVH, on 09/08/2008, -0/+9"I had my chances," Nadal said. "He beat me because he was better than me."
Nadal said that post-match about Murray. Douche, is something he is not. Don't judge him by the way he conducts himself during interviews- he's still learning English. - futebollounge, on 09/08/2008, -0/+6Awwww i knew i could turn to digg for the love. Not that i think Nadal is a bad guy or anything i just dislike the way he plays, looks, moves, body language.
I always saw Federer as the cockier guy because he comes across as this country club guy, which is also the reason i admire him for.
If i were to compare Nadal to Federer i would say Nadal is a working horse while Federer is pure skill and whenever i talk to people about the 2 it seems as if they like the working man more, which i dont understrand because its MUCH more common to see a hard workign athlete than seeing a purely talented one. I gotta give Federer more credit just for making it look so effortless. I totally understand the love for the hard workers but damn if i were to compare two artists i would more likely be a fan of Picasso than my hard working mentally retarded cousin's friend.
if this didnt make sense than my excuse is that i drank too much - jewishmafio, on 09/08/2008, -0/+6Imo... Nadal is a good player but hes not nearly as consistent as Federer was...
- Stonekeeper, on 09/08/2008, -0/+6Obligatory whinge about the press calling him British when he wins and scottish when he loses
- kaidey, on 09/08/2008, -0/+6Yeah he comes off pretty humble off the court and in his interviews, like a different person. Was signing kids autographs right after his loss to Murray .
- frieddonuts, on 09/08/2008, -3/+8Give Nadal a break. He won an Open, a major tournament, and the Olympics in the space of a few months. I'd say getting to the semifinals after winning that many matches in a row is still amazing.
- Stavrosian, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4You are, of course, aware that MURRAY HA HA has a winning record against Federer.
Carry on. - bowlesman11, on 09/08/2008, -1/+5I agree. Most people look at players when they are on the court and equate this to their actual personalities in real life. Nadal is a beast on the courts, but as you said, a very nice young man off the courts.
- darkcrystal, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4The 15 minute deuce battle in the third(?) set was epic. Some really good tennis.
- BryceHutch, on 09/08/2008, -14/+18Any one else hate Nadal? He seems like a douche.
- an0kha, on 09/08/2008, -1/+4now i do hope murray wins the finals too... underdog FTW.
- luag, on 09/08/2008, -6/+9Reporter: What do you think about the match?
Murray: He was nad al that difficult. - csrster, on 09/08/2008, -0/+310pm BST according to the BBC.
- JakeyG14, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3Henman is somewhere crying I hope, Murray has shown that OBE receiving loser how a British number one should play.
- csrster, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3Is it time to fire up the classic Monty Python sketch about the dastardly Scottish plan to win Wimbledon?
- LoganVH, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3I never expected Rafa to do as well as he did this Open. He plays an incredibly specific game of tennis, rooted in his athleticism and topspin-heavy forehand. Not very suitable for hard surfaces like the US Open, but perfect for clay and to a lesser extent, grass.
- inactive, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3Murray is 2-1 against Federer. It could be more or less the same match, especially considering Murray beat Nadal by playing Nadal's game.
- Kelmon, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3No. Nadal is a fabulous player and a wonderful ambassador for the sport.
- venir, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Nadal's english isn't the best so I think he tends not to come off as well as some of the other players. I have seen a few interviews with him and he is always very humble and seems like a good guy.
- coopaloop, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Agreed that Roddick is a complete douche who's way more full of himself than either Nadal or Fed. talking ***** on Nadal and then getting your ass handed to you makes you look like a douche even if you aren't.
- ShootTheCore, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Scotland is part of Britain as far as I know...
- Owwmykneecap, on 09/08/2008, -2/+4Reporter: "When you speak to me YOU WILL SHOW SOME RESPECT!"
- coldfusion1970, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Actually he won two slams (French and Wimbledon) and the Olympics.
So hes not doing too bad. - Vikaas, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Murray will be 4th after the final, regardless of who wins. The number 1, 2, and 3 rankings will stay Nadal, Federer, and Djokovic.
- robander80, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2hes british when he wins and scottish when he loses
- Owwmykneecap, on 09/08/2008, -1/+3and murray doesnt?
- merlinxlr, on 09/08/2008, -5/+6Was hoping for another epic Nadal v Federer. Disappointed.
- Owwmykneecap, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1don't laugh at your own jokes.
- coldfusion1970, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2LOL. It starts at 8pm in the UK.
- Kelmon, on 09/08/2008, -2/+3I'd like to see Murray win, and we know he can beat Federer, but Roger's had a day off to rest whereas Murray has to come straight back in. Here's hoping that Andy hasn't picked up any injuries in the match against Nadal and that his fitness can hold out.
- Vikaas, on 09/08/2008, -2/+3The numbers show it all. Nadal lost it only winning 59% of his 1st serve points.
Now to watch an epic final which starts... during class. *****! - jamauss, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1I think you're referring to the battle at 1-0 Murray up on Nadal's serve in the 4th set. It was epic, indeed. Something like 8 or 9 deuces and 23 total points or something like that.
- inactive, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1To Nadal's defense, he's overplayed himself this year. But I still don't like him and you're still right.
- stafa786, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1Not really stunning, Nadal isn't a very good hard court player. It was actually stunning that he made it this far in the U.S. Open. He had never made it this far before.
- Iztikeit, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1Nadal is actually pretty damn modest......
- anshuman, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1a Star is born.
and i loved seeing 'itchy ass' getting a beating. uncle tony cudnt do anything too. - inactive, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1When is it Brit and when is it Briton?
- vancanucksfan, on 09/09/2008, -0/+1And now you are aware that Murray got ***** owned by federer. HAHA
carry on - OasisR123, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1No offense, but I don't think Roddick even deserves to be in the same sentence than Federer/Nadal, they are way above him.
- sssfsx, on 09/11/2008, -0/+0Not consistent?Please!!!!!!
- ianuk11, on 12/26/2008, -0/+0Scotland got to love it
