It's on BEIN. Tennis Channel has rights to WTA when it is played in US and when they show majors, I think. Otherwise, BEIN has the rights, I think.
I did not know this.

Rafa/Nole coming up now.

Big djokovic fan but no way he threatens nadal here. He seems to be way too far from his game right now to make these matches potential wins.

He looks solid early and had a couple of break points in that first game. He won't win, but it's good to see him playing well.

Djoke’s game is kruptonite to Rafa, but Rafa is sooo much more mentally tough

Meh. Rafa has better fitness (right now, at least) and hits the ball with a huge margin of error. Djoker always sort of has to redline to beat him.

Do you think djoke will add to his major haul?

Alex is tough to beat when he’s serving like this.

I’m not so sure.

The thing with Sascha is we have to see if he can win in three out of five set tennis.
On today's form, I agree with pelicansfan that Djoker can win 2 more majors.

Sascha wins like a 24 minute tiebreak.

I believe he can. He appears to be in great shape.

Not to be argumentative, but this isn't exactly true, no?* Prior to today, Novak had beaten him 11 out of the last 13 matches, including several lopsided affairs and a straight sets win over Rafa at RG.
I would say that it was quite the opposite, that Rafa had to redline to beat Novak.

Anyone have a link for the final tomorrow morning to watch online? Thanks
Posted on 5/19/18 at 10:03 pm to pelicansfan123
I don't know how many more he'll get, but I'd really like to see him reach 15 so that he'll be 3rd all time. Because I think he's the 3rd best all time and it's just fitting.
In a 10 game matchup against Pete in his prime, I think Djoker takes 6 on average. It would be great matches with such polar contrasting styles

While there’s some truth to this, I think it’s somewhat overblown. I mean the guy is 21 years old, and he came up in the age of Roger, Rafa, and Joker.
Has he been losing some matches he probably should be winning in slams? Definitely. But it’s not like he’s the best player in the world and the best-of-5 format is the only thing keeping him down.
It took Joker 3 years to win his first slam.
