Nadal's nemesis.
-
Those moonballs that Nadal desperately throws in every time he's outclassed on tempo are just such cowardish shots!!!!! Redicilous...
-
After watching Novak's great 2011 season his game reminded me Davydenko's at the end of the 2009 - very clean and ball-crushing performance off both swings.
-
The doped Spaniard losing: always great.
-
@Swordsman808 i thought the same :D
-
nadal was so passive back to 2009!!
-
Davydenko hugs the baseline and takes everything on the rise, which is key against top-spin players such as nadal. He's so good at it as well, wish he could still play like this
-
@JordanjamesX yes, that's why davydenko is the only player who has a winning record against nadal
-
@tarckbear I agree, dude. Nobody gives credits to Davydenko's tactics against Nadal, and Djokovic have been using the same strategy, forcing Nadal's backhand, making those insane angles. Mighty Davydenko! :)
-
that...is just simply awesome :D
The other ATP players if they had brains would be watching and studying this match to see why Davydenko beats Nadal. Davydenko rushes Nadal it is obvious for Nadal's topspin shots he needs a lot of time and Nikolay robs him of time. I hope Nikolay can get back to the top he is too talented not to win a slam or reach a slam final. In this match Nikolay just overpowered Nadal and was super aggressive attacking the net and pushing Nadal all over the court. Well done!
