2022 French Open: Love every moment of Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic while you can

As Rafael Nadal himself has promised, he will call it quits at some point in the future. But it won’t be today — or even yesterday — when this punch-for-punch quarterfinal match against Novak Djokovic gets underway.

Since their initial encounter on this piece of clay in 2006, two of the sport’s most seasoned heavyweights have been trading punches with one another. Still, in their 59th encounter, the margins that separate these two are extremely slim: the width of a line, the tiniest missed stroke, the fleeting misjudgment of an unanticipated bounce.

Nadal was the winner of this match, which took 4 hours and 11 minutes to complete. There was no punch that could be considered a knockout, but rather there was a succession of jabs that finally wore out the opponent until the last bell rang at 1:15 in the morning. The match took place on Wednesday at Roland Garros, and the final score was 6-2, 4-6, 6-2, 7-6. (4).

“To tell you the truth, I believe that they are getting a late start… This is the world that we currently live in, “Djokovic stated. “According to the broadcasters, there will be both a night match and a day match. They contributed the funds. They decide.”

They are one of the very few surefire things in tennis, which makes this rivalry one of the finest in its category. When it comes to athletic rivalries, this one is right up there with the best of them. Take advantage of them while you still can. Both with bodies that are gradually beginning to backfire and weaken them. Tennis has lived off rivalries like Borg-McEnroe or Evert-Navratilova. This has been tennis’ Ali-Frazier.

They are going to be a loss to us at some point.

“The fans is aware that this will likely be one of my last opportunities to compete here,” Nadal stated. “It’s hard to put into words how incredible the crowd was, and I can’t thank everyone enough for being here in Paris. It was a night that will never be forgotten.”

Throughout the whole week, the two worked in contrast, exactly like great rivals: Djokovic wanted to play at night, while Nadal preferred to play during the day; Nadal attempted to play down expectations, while Djokovic spoke up his possibilities. And right from the minute the two left, it seemed like a major event had just taken place. Djokovic approached the court to a mixture of shouts and boos, and he was eager to gatecrash the party that Nadal was having on his clay court. The crowd roared to the rafters as Nadal walked on to the court.

The match got off when there was still some colour in the sky, and Nadal made quick work of the opening set, winning it 6-2. But when night fell, the sky became cloudless, and a shroud of darkness descended across the arena, just as Djokovic began to win and found his rhythm, he took the second set with a score of 6-4. Nadal took a break. A few moments later, the audience blew a trumpet to announce the king’s return as he rushed back onto the stage. Nadal successfully defended his crown by winning the third set 6-2.

Djokovic said, “I am aware that I could have performed better.” “I am pleased with myself for continuing to fight till the very end and not giving up. You know, after a war that lasted for four hours, I have no choice but to accept this defeat.”

The temperature went down dramatically. The spectators covered themselves in blankets and were adamant about not getting up from their seats. They waited for a spark or for Djokovic’s expressionless mask to fall, and it finally did in the second game of the fourth set, when he whacked the net in rage after he was unable to tame a Nadal forehand shot.

The response from the audience was to boo Djokovic to the highest heavens. However, the more the crowd jeered, the harder Djokovic hit his forehand and the more accurate his serve was. Two minutes later, he broke Nadal when the umpire overruled a call at the vital time. This was another shift in momentum, lines were struck through, chapters were rewritten, and the competition took a new direction.

That’s the deal with the Djokovic-Nadal matchup: Even on the extremely rare instances when one has won a set 6-0, it does not seem as though they have accomplished this feat. There is no natural momentum to these matches, no dominant spell that leads to one easing home, but rather it is more of a test of who blinks first, with both of their skill sets being beautifully matched. The games are broken up into points that are so brilliantly designed that you become accustomed to their brilliance; it must be like being a docent at the Louvre for tennis.

Nadal said to the encounter as “Still a really fantastic contest and in a tremendous setting.” “So, to answer your question, yes, Novak, Roger [Federer], and I have an incredible history together of competing against each other in the most significant matches for such a considerable amount of time. Because of this, the experiences are elevated to a higher level of significance and feeling.”

The stadium was still at capacity when Rafael Nadal won the match with a backhand winner after Novak Djokovic had saved three match chances in the fourth set tiebreak.

Even though the metro station had been closed for quite some time, no one dared to move until Rafael Nadal took four strides into the middle of the court, lifted his arms to the heavens, and then fell on his knees while clasping his hands behind his back. His body had listened to him, and as a result, he was given a further opportunity to achieve clay-court immortality. However, a new chapter in this incredible rivalry was added this morning during a match that took place over the course of two days, even spanning the month of May into June in France. And even though it’s getting close to the conclusion, luckily the last words haven’t been put down just yet.

According to Nadal, “I put everything into this event in order for it to allow me to play.” “After that, I have no idea what is going to take place.”
