This has been an amazing performance so far. The only reason Nadal was reasonably close was because he was serving out of his mind. Djokovic's ground strokes are out of this world.

eta: Nadal just missed the overhead smash. He's clearly pressing.

I like how people crash threads when their guys are looking good, then they're nowhere to be found when the guy they proclaim as the best ever is currently getting run around the court. I know he may still win but Djok is looking good

And when they start talking about Rafa being the best of all time, and people are like "Fed isn't the best guy of his era" it makes me want to puke. Fed has 5 years on Nadal, who was being the F out of Nadal early in his career?

What does the fact that some people believe Rafa to be one of the best all time have to do with it? The best players of all time don't lose?

These experts at Wimbledon have been saying it the last 2 weeks.

And the Best of All Time in his Prime doesn't get run off the court. He can get beaten but shouldn't be run off the court

Edit: of course tennis has the 3 surfaces so Fed got run off the court by Nadal on Clay etc in French Open finals but this is a good court for Nadal

And I know Wimbledon is THE tourney in Men's Tennis but they say they are surprised he's handling the pressure so well....He's won 2 majors and is 47-1 this year. He's the best right now

Unless he's playing somebody who's playing better than anyone ever has?

Djokovic is better in this match than Federer has ever been.
