@@bigwengz914 yeah Djokovic vs Wawinka AO 1/8 final is 2013 is highest level match on hard court in history.They were throwing bombs whole match.AO 2012 final is also one of the best,longest final and interesting match but that one against Wawrinka in 2013 was somthing unreal,those shots.... rockets
This match is right up there with Ali vs Frazier in terms of physical endurance. It's the most brutal match I've ever seen in my life. Two of the biggest gladiators refusing to give up and pushing each other to the absolute limit. I don't think we'll ever see something like this again. We've been blessed with the golden era and it makes me incredibly sad how it's coming to an end. 😢
I watched 1st set b4 going to Church(UK), I came back from Church hours later & couldn’t believe they were still playing the match. For me the greatest final ever🐐🐐👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
The fact that Novak played 5 hours in semifinal against andy murray and 6 hours in the final is just mindblowing how HE WAS JUST ON THE PINNACLE AT THAT POINT.
Best match of all time so far. Both of players at their best, their prime moments. Djokovic was tecnically superior on this surface, his ball was more penetrant and Nadal's spin wasn't so effective. Each rally Djokovic was in attacking mode and Nadal in full defensive mode, despite it all they played for almost 6 hours!! 6 hours!!! That's absolutely unreal and this emphasizes the incredible attitude and skills of Rafa. Even a top player in that situation lose in 3 or 4 sets maybe, but maintain this effort and this level for almost 6 hours, always being in apnea... i think... it's simply impossible... only a legend like Rafa can do this. I'm sure that for both of them this was the hardest match of their career.
I remember watching this one live...it had absolutely everything you can imagine. Extraordinary play from both of them but Djokovic showing why he is the best HC player ever, like Nadal is on clay.
1:35:50 How much effort and heart both Djokovic and Nadal fought with tells this time-stamped moment with both of them in agony, with desponded looks in their eyes. They truly tried their very best and they produced such an unforgettable sporting battle of all time. The Big 3 era which seemed to be eternal feels like it was wrapped in a blip of a second. First Federer went two years ago, then Murray two months ago, and now Nadal. Even if you are just a casual sports fan it's difficult not to appreciate the loss and emptiness the world of sports endures with the retirements of these iconic athletes, whose legend and significance will only grow as years and decades pass by. Thank you for two decades of amazing tennis, Rafa and good luck with everything. Regards from Serbia.
Today was the match with Sinner and Djokovic but when Djokovic and Nadal would have a match with Sinner at this age it would definetly end 6:16:2 for Djokovic or Nadal.
3:58 the story of media undermining Djokovic that went on and on for years. How Djokovic battled with both his opponents and media favoritism is double the accomplishment. That's one more stat we should add to the GOAT checklist among all the others that Djokovic dominates :)
He’s a relentless warrior on court and he also doesn’t have a great serve that would give him easy points. This would often turn Nadal games into epic gruelling battles.
No Djokovic and Nadal here were both at their peaks. They played 4 consecutive Slams finals between them beating 6 times Federer and Murray in semifinals
@@AndrewTheAceMan Federer was past his prime at that point. I still stand by what I said. Nadal was coming from losing many finals to Djokovic and he wasn’t nearly at his best. On the other hand, Djokovic was coming off the best year of his career and playing on his absolute favorite surface. Reason for Nole to have almost 20 bps vs Nadal’s 7
Djokovic is the goat, jede positive had to head against Nadal, all Masters,world title, Nadal nevermann all Masters and the world title, Entfernung not all Masters title and never oh olympic gold 🥇 in the sinles , pro statistics is for Djokovic 🇷🇸, including had to head 27:23 Ford Djokovic, against Federer 🇨🇭
12 years later and its still hard for me to see rafa loses the 4-2 in the final set. nole was a damn machine and rafa was so close to become the first to do it in the Australian Open final.
No, that was Wimbledon 1980, the encounter between Borg and McEnroe. Second greatest was probably when Nadal beat Fed at the same venue. I'd rate this as no.3.
I watch tennis for last 20 years.
This is best tennis match ever.
I think the Wawrinka match in 2013 is slightly better
@@bigwengz914 yeah Djokovic vs Wawinka AO 1/8 final is 2013 is highest level match on hard court in history.They were throwing bombs whole match.AO 2012 final is also one of the best,longest final and interesting match but that one against Wawrinka in 2013 was somthing unreal,those shots.... rockets
@@BogdanPW641 i don't know what the best match ever is, but that 2013 was better than 2012. Djokovic too cautious in this match
@@bigwengz914 2013 Novak Wawinka AO is best hard court match in history,highest level of tennis what will not happen again
Ppl always forget about the USO 2011 final. 3rd and 4th sets were ridiculous.

Thrilla in Melbourne. You're right.
for physical endurance its the best match. For best match overall it's probably not in the top 10.

No! No! No!

lost the match right there.

By far my favorite match and for sure one of the greatest ever being played

THE BEST FINAL WITH BEST QUALITY TENNIS BOTH GOATS IN THEIR ABSOLUTE PRIME THE BEST PLAYERS OF LAST DECADE
The best grand slam final ever!!!
this match is the definition of tennis godness
Today was the match with Sinner and Djokovic but when Djokovic and Nadal would have a match with Sinner at this age it would definetly end 6:1 6:2 for Djokovic or Nadal.
New thing bad, old thing good. How original.
Current Sinner could definitely challenge Rafa on hard courts, especially fast ones.
@ dimcegjakovski6275...For sure! It was amazing....! The real 🎾 with style and nooo STEROIDS! Two 🐐👌💕 Congratulations CHAMPS!
Zamislite te rezultate Djokovica da se on dopingovao kao Siner.Sada bi imao nr 24 vec 64😂🤣🤣🤣🎉

No, it's Dojko who has a chip on his shoulder because Fed and Nadal are loved more.
Legends
Nadal being in two of the greatest tennis matches ever and arguably the best ones in this century really tells the story about him.
The best is Wimbledon 2008 by far
He’s a relentless warrior on court and he also doesn’t have a great serve that would give him easy points.
This would often turn Nadal games into epic gruelling battles.
@@yussepig6629 Sorry, it's Wimbledon 1980.
This is where you can see who will be the GOAT of all time. The GOAT won. For today, for tomorrow, forever Novak. 🐐
1. this match
2. 2008 Wimby final
3. 1980 Wimby final
4. 1984 RG final
1980 Wimbledon Final has to be the greatest. Lendl winning in 1984, McEnroe should never have lost that.
Greatest tennis match ever.
Wimbledon 2008 the best tennis match ever!
1:02:11 If that BH landed in, we would be telling about very different things about the GOAT debate now.
You really stretched the meaning of the word Highlights here
Really ! With no commentary !
The war djokovic another world against nadal occident winner djokovic
still hurts the fith set 4-2, 30-15. that ball, that easy ball changed everything. From that Nole rise and rafa was out. But what a match
No doubt.
Greatest battle of all time in tennis.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍
It should start from the beginning
Please eurosport, can we have Nadal djoko 2014 roland garros please ?
Wimbledon 2008 is the best final and match ever
An hour and forty minutes of highlights 😂😂😂 this is the stuff
If we talks about matches :
2012AO final
2021RG (HF-Quality)
2008W final
2019W final
2013RG (djoker vs nadal)
Nole GOAT! Nadalovi rituali- pamtiću ih dugo, dugo! Nepristojno do....
Nadal featuring in both of the greatest matches of all time, taking it to the HC GOAT on HC and to the grass GOAT on grass. Legend 👑
WIMBLEDON 2019 with Federer was the same!
Jesulin de Ubrique estaba aquí en su prime...
It was the longest match in the Australian history but never the best. Too many unforced errors by both players.
Best match ever Wimbldon 2008.
I got my cousin pregnant but this comment will be lost among the others
You’re reliant on the downvoters not upvoting you spite you.
congrats buddy
When history books be wrighten this match will be in front of book to be remeber for all time🙏💪🇷🇸🇪🇸
Should come with Health Warning
Most physical final ever for sure! Highest quality was seen in the Wimbledon 2008 final imo

Roger v Rafa aus open 2017 was the best final
Sorry, but that award is going to Wimbledon final 2019.
I was in the front row. No way was it better than: Borg vs McEnroe, Wimbledon 1980 (no.1); Fed vs Nadal, Wimby 2008; or this AO match.
Not just the best tennis final, but the GREATEST TENNIS MATCH EVER!
No!
