This was Nadal's absolute peak in terms of shot making, and very close to his physical peak. As for Djokovic, this was his physical peak as well, but he went on to further improve his serve in later years.
You know whats great about the Big Three, Four or whatever you want to call it. Majority of their matches are available on TH-cam in crystal clear 1080p Full HD;) A lifetime of memories from 2003-2023!
It’s similar to their match in AO 2012 maybe not that thrilling but it’s 2:1 for djoko in Melbourne and nadal in Paris then in fourth set one of them is coming back in tie break and in fifth almost win because has a break point but anyway lost. In Paris djoko lost because of net
Yes this match was essentially a mirror image of the 2012 Australian Open final. In that 2012 final, Djokovic was clearly the superior player overall, winning 17 more points, breaking serve 3 more times, hitting both more winners and fewer unforced errors etc. He really should have finished Nadal off in 4 sets, before recovering from a losing position to win the 5th set. In this semi-final, Nadal was clearly the superior player overall, winning 19 more points, breaking serve 3 more times, hitting both more winners and fewer unforced errors etc. He really should have finished Djokovic off in 4 sets, before recovering from a losing position to win the 5th set.

That was the best clay court match I've ever seen... Best match was Wimbledon final 2008.
The closest that Rafa ever came to lose at Roland Garros when he wasn't injured, ill or in bad form.
Exactly
True
He lost against Nole in 2021
@@pekkalanne846 Yes but he sustained an injury that almost ended his career in that match.

Djokovic’s forehand inside-out was crazy this match

But they should be in 1080p50/60. 😊
I remember that match very well, after that break in the 5th I thought Djokovic would win it.

Why you guys dont upload full matches?
Well, one the best matches in history of tennis.
This would’ve been the only time a healthy prime Nadal lost at RG

Best clay match of all time
can we have please nadal djokovic roland garros 2014?
Full match or long highlights
One of them would be awesome
Nadal should have won in 4 ( he served for the match and he was a break up) but novak could have won in the fifth
They both choke it but novak should've won after that opportunity he was given
Could we maybe have a better title for the greatest RG match ever?
