HAMBURG FINAL MASTERS SERIES TENNIS 2008 - Federer v Nadal

[TheLeilisa]

im 5ft 10 is it good for Tennis?

[Rafathaman94]

Even though I am a Nadal fan, I must admit that Roger should have won this match. He could have been up 6-1 4-1 in this match. Great job Rafa for coming back!

[wilx218x]

what happened to the 2010 version of this tourney? Is being played after wimbledon, during the beginning of the hardcourt season. Not a single top player is playing it. They are getting ready for the U.S. Open Series. The tourney organizers royaly fucked up! The 2010 ATP Masters Hamburg should have been played before The French Open, then you would have had the top players in it.

[subzoroboy]

@wilx218x then the players would not have time to rest

[Thutmosis7]

All i care about is nadal winning the tournament. I don't care about the semis streaks. Only fedites put so much into that. It's meaningless to me. Nadal is 7-2 in GS finals. Should of been 8-1, but don't want to get into that right now.

[Crosby4hyg]

@Thutmosis7 You're a fool if you think only fedites care about semifinal appearances. and alright since you don't want to talk semi's, lets talk finals. federer has won 16 grand slam titles and is still in the prime of his physical career. nadal has won 7 and already has severe knee problems. the man is on steroids, and his body is showing it by breaking down. Im tired of talking to you though thutmosis you only seem able to recognize how good nadal is and seem to think everyone else is inferior

[Thutmosis7]

@Crosby4hyg Nadal will be around in his 30's. I promise you that. So don't worry my friend you will see. Anyway all i am looking forward to his 8 GS at wimbledon.

[Thutmosis7]

@moroccosfinest He is back to number 1 where he belongs.

[Crosby4hyg]

fuck nadal

[Thutmosis7]

@Crosby4hyg Fuck you too you stinking fedite.

[Crosby4hyg]

@Thutmosis7 lol go on, try and defend nadal. the man's on steroids he'll soon be discovered and have all his titles stripped and good riddance.

[Thutmosis7]

@Crosby4hyg You my friend is talking a bunch of nonsense. I won't respond to your idiotic crap.

[Crosby4hyg]

@Thutmosis7 hehehe so u admit I'm right then?

[Thutmosis7]

@Crosby4hyg Nadal is against drugs. he doesn't take drugs, he just works hard alot. ALot of people don't take drugs and look built. Why don't you go ask uncle toni his coach. Maybe he knows nadal's lil secret which is no big deal, cuz there is no secret. The guy is clean.

[Crosby4hyg]

@Thutmosis7 true a lot of people dont take drugs and look built, but name one other person in the history of tennis who looked like nadal, had nadal's footspeed, and his all court sense. I'm not saying he's not a great player, i just think he's got too many things going for him to be legit. the human body isn't made to be used the way he uses it, and therefore he's having knee problems at age 23 or whatever he is. mark my words he's on the juice.

[Thutmosis7]

@Crosby4hyg Why would he be on a banned substance?

[Crosby4hyg]

@Thutmosis7 Lol gee I'm not sure...maybe because he makes tens of millions of dollars a year? The same reason any superstar does.

[Thutmosis7]

@Crosby4hyg The guy came out sometimes a few yrs back and criticize playas who be on substance like that. It doesn't make sense what you're saying. I remember when he speak out against it sometime back. I forgot wish playa they did suspended for the use of it. Nadal is not on steroid. He is clean as a duck. he is the image of the sport. Best there ever will be period.

[Crosby4hyg]

@Thutmosis7 Lol you do realize that just because an athlete says he's not on steroids doesnt mean its necessarily true. athletes lie just like everybody else, and often more so because when they lie, they make millions of dollars. And as for being the best ever...how many titles has nadal won again? granted, he's younger than federer but the fact is that federer has played in the last 23 GS semifinals and won a majority of them. neither nadal or any other player will ever do that..

[Thutmosis7]

@Crosby4hyg I really don't care about semis streak, all i care about is if you win the damn thing. Winning the tournament is more important than semis. Laver made it to 31 out of 35 finals. What federe is like 14-9 since that streak started right? Ok he last in the 4th round to that brazilian guy at the french open 04. I just can't remember his name. So actually the semis streak started at wimble 04 and lasted till AO 10. He won 14 slams out of 23 in that span.

[rdsuk1]

east or west federer is the best............

[Atlargein]

Thanks Nadal for your combative style and tenacity!!!  Tennis will never be boring again!!!!

[exaizmahh]

Nadal is the best :P

[shortyy007]

federer is the best :p

[nadalbest4ever]

this is not federer lost this is nadal won. what a comeback from nadal, simple the king!

[El7IncA]

Nadal the KING OF TENNIS...of course....

[spiff524]

idk nadal mentally is what worries me. His whole family situation can mess up his game.

[gigatron4]

what does 'idk' mean?

[arneduym]

idk: i don't know

[gigatron4]

"king"?

[AlphaDraconis7]

5 - 1 first set

5 - 2 second set

and federer looses the match

RETARD

[zvucnik91]

5:1 lead and at the end set lost 7:5  RETARD

[BrotherTree1]

FEDERERS OUTTA HERE

[DeLenoy]

Now it's no longer any Hamburg Masters!

Too bad!! I like that tournement!

[12maggio]

grande rafa !!!

best player tennis in the wordl !!!!!!

[brucewillis2]

didn't realise federer was doing so well in the first and second sets and let it slip. very unfortunate.

[BrotherTree1]

i bet nadal was just toying at him at first and then he just came back for fun, cauz he knows he can beat Roger 6-0 6-0 on clay O_O

im jokes btw but eh - could be a true statement but i cant say cauz i dont kno jackshit....its just insight i guess.....

[ATPADPenergy]

Sesamoiditis is a painful condition that affects the forefoot, usually beneath the big toe. While it's not as common as other foot injuries, it can strike runners who are increasing their mileage in preparation for a marathon. When the base of the big toe is subjected to chronic pressure, the surrounding tissues become irritated and inflamed. Sesamoiditis usually begins as a mild ache and becomes increasingly uncomfortable.

[gilgatech]

i beat nadal on clay easy

[PurpleHeartedNerd91]

I CANT SEE THE BALL!!

[hallnoats4ever]

this must be fake tennis

[tgj1992]

Can't beat rafa on clay

[hihat7]

nadal is leg!

[kc82674]

nadal rekons hes a tennis player jsut because he as a racket

[iLuckyyy]

being second in the world also helps

beating the best 6-0 reassures him

and winning both the french open and in hamburg confirms the fact that he is a fcking tennis professional

You cannot criticize him, your plonker.

[ThomJBooth]

=D Perfectly explained!

[daveman12000]

lol if you are being sarcastic nvm but if your not you are a douchebag

[gilgatech]

ur a douchebag

[jpjames1]

Nadal is taking the game to an even higher level

[BlueTaylor2k7]

has nadal lost weight?

[tmark618]

looks that way to me

[8becomes2zeros]

still strong as fuck though

[tangokiddo]

roger faces the heat on clay...

watch out for djokovic as well......

rofer the king of grass.....

nadal the king of clay.....

men's tennis is the best..... so much uncertainty.....

[dimmuborgir82]

[komo7g]

[luvkaka22]

here cumz the 4th trophy in RG

[mrperfect87106]

And then we won't see him win another tournament until next spring when he's back on clay.

[Matezza16]

i dunno. he's amazing on clay yes, but he is catching up on the other serfices. next couple of years hell win wimbledon.

[channer]

roger had it, just let it slip

[feoleo88]

Its obvious nadal played tactically better (technically both are almost equal),..

..the match was won by nadal not so much because Rog let it slip, but rather nadal woke up in time and attack Rog's weakest stroke, the backhand..

[aceminator42]

you have no idea what your talking about, roger federers backhand is one of the best in the game
