i have tendonitis in my knees too

cause of the style nadal plays the hard courts put alot of pressure on his knees

nadal will be back for french and wimbeldon but will never be a good hard court player

i love how Davy is still flyin under the radar

mark my words Davy wins it all

Are you kidding me? Tendonitis is serious shit and whenever you apply too much pressure on your knees ( once you've had it for numerous times ) you will be back from scratch.
Wimbledon and French is the same,he just can't afford it, his knees will still feel the burn.

And yes,Nadal can't afford playing running around like a crazy cougar,which indeed makes him just another tennis player.
There are at least 20 or more players out there who are technically more gifted,Nadal is a physical monster.

/e- Perhaps you misinterpreted what I said, I meant average as in average in the world tour, not average compared to you lmao

Yeah,people outside of the top 10 are average.
There's a whole different stratosphere in the top 10, Nadal won't belong into the top 10 if his knees keep fucking up.

Oh sorry I meant, if HE keeps fucking up his knees.Just a matter of time really,a time-bomb was unleashed last year,Nadal doesn't have much left.

I understand you're a warm-hearted Nadal fan and want to see the good in the bad but sometimes you just have to face reality.

i am not a Nadal fan btw
Del Porto + Federer fan
but wat u r saying is false false false

tendonitis 75 percet of the time occurs on hard court ( hard court is brutal on ur knees) if u remember his knee problems began when he started the hard court season after wimbeladon
he usually doesnt have knee problems most of the time on wimbeldon and clay cause those surfaces favor his type of game and are not hard on his knees

Go ahead name 20 more player more talented then the man at the age of 23 who won 6 grand slams one us open away from Career slam and is 13-7 heads up against arguably the best tennnis player of all time
if ur talking at this point u can find people more talented

75 percent
Which leaves 25% percent open. There it is.
Not to mention there will be an amount of massive recovery again and experts are all saying he can't carry on like this. ( Not depending on the court he plays on )
keywords : " doesn't have knee problems MOST OF THE TIME "
You see,with each fail,tendonitis gets more sensitive.

I don't care how many slams he's won or what's his record,that is not only from his talent,Nadal is inarguably the most fit and built up tennis player the modern game has seen.
Most of the kudos goes for his physical status not talent.

anyone watching nadal/murray match?

It's over ages ago.... Nadal retired the match due to injury in the 3rd set.

orly? stoped watching like 15 mins ago or something for a bit lol

That wasn't a live broadcast then.
