This would have been considered one of the best matches ever if it was a final. This match is has been overlooked and forgotten by many. It was one heck of a match
Yup nadal always faces inspired opponents at teh Australian open, this match against Berdych and the one against Verdasco are my favorite AO matches along side Federer vs Nadal in 2009 and Wawrinka vs Djokovic 2013 and 2014
someone tell rafa to look at this match and his returning game... amazing.. will need some of these shots and court positions to compete with novak in hard courts...
This is the way Berdych should be playing against the Big Four! Even though he lost, it was one of his best performances. Compare it now, for example, to Wimbledon semifinal this year...
ToomcioZioomcio You can't play this way on every surface smh. You think you know how he should play better than a professional coach and he himself? It doesn't make sense.
He played much better in Australian Open 2015 QF, blasting huge forehands through Nadal. 2017 Wimbledon SF was Berdych's best performance there since 2010, but ran into peaking Federer. Lost 2 tiebreak sets vs the GOAT on grass, nothing you can do about that.
MrPatrickbuit You don't have to be coach or Berdych to see what are the biggest advantages of his game. Tomas is a great hard hitter and he proved it throughout the years.
@@CesarRodriguez-zh7zj never seen Novak hit a shot like that in my life, from that far back, with that my spin and dip, and with that much strength to lift the ball off the ground whilst jumping to it
Looking back I can already see Nadal lost a step from 2009, probably due to injury. He was still at a high level , but could no longer reach Peak God mode physically in regards to movement like in Wimbledon 08 or Australia 🇦🇺 09 2010 was last year of Peak Nadal. To me Nadal is the greatest ever. The only player I have seen be able to adapt his game to all ages and counteract all other approaches by his opposition. The 🐐 Goat.
soheil adam A clay court specialist who’s won 12 slams outside clay? And has more Masters and a winning H2H against Federer, while being only one slam behind despite being 5 years younger? Just because he dominates clay doesn’t mean he’s not excellent outside of it
@@SJ-di5zu i know he can play outside of clay but still his play is not enough for other surfaces, if grass and HC weren't slow down over the years Nadal wouldn't have won Wimbledon and it would've been hard for him to win in HC. Nadal oustide of clay is vulnerable.
Such an aggressive and heavy tennis by Berdych, but this Rafa was simply incredible!!! I feel so sad even today that he lost the finals which he should have won. good old days of tennis.
Nadal is also one of the best hard courters of all time. When young he kept the same intensity throughout the match and increased gradually when needed. His returns and backhand are also underrated. Such a gem of a tennis player!
It's not underrated. I's basically unanimous that year the tour was much more competitive than now. Guys like Domi, Daniil, Zverev, Tsitsipas would have no chance against this Rafa. I don't even think they could beat this Berdych. And of course you had the other members of the big 4 at an amazing level, and you still had your Delpos, Tsongas, Ferrers.
@@Madferit91 Let me give my opinion pl don't mistake i agree Tsitsipas,zverev,medvedev may not beat this Nadal but Thiem can beat any Nadal on hard courts. If you look at this Nadal with ao 2020 Nadal . AO 2020 Nadal and better backhand and better slice overall offensively slightly better than this Nadal but this nadal had more legs. Thiem has a great forehand backhand, serve movement, defense . This berdych had a great serve and forehand but his defense and movement weren't so great and his backhand wasn't great either so i think to think Thiem doesn't stand a chance against this Nadal is not correct. Nadal hit 50 winenrs just 32 unforced errors 72% first serve is a great performance against Thiem in AO 2020 compared to say 44 winners and 71 unforced errors against djokovic at ao 2012. Still Thiem was bossing him from the back of the court he won 15 more points than Nadal when it was over 9 shots . Not many people could claim that against nadal the same 2020 nadal destroyed 2020 french open djokovic not even 2008 french open nadal could beat djokovic this handsomely. To think 2012 nadal was so much better than 2020 nadal is not correct.
@@michaelfinch2082 I strongly disagree with this opinion, this Nadal beat Berdych and Federer in decent form. Furthermore he played on an even level for the best part of 5 sets against prime Aus open Djokovic, who could be argued as the greatest hard Court player of all time. This is the period when Djokovic was almost invincible and tennis was at its most competitive, far more so than now. Nadal's legs and and stamina allowed him his elite level defence which he no longer has on hard courts. Clay is different as well, you can't use the argument that because Nadal thrashed Djokovic on Clay in 2020 that his 2020 hard Court form is better than 2012. Players play differently depending on the surface. Watch Nadal 2009 Aus open match vs Verdasco and there is your answer of Nadal's prime defence vs elite level hitting.
@@lachiebalcombe1901 Ok mate i respect your opinion but pl watch nadal thiem london 2020 full match if you think nadal does not have the legs you see his full skills at the net some unreal passing shots flat backhands, better spot serving etc. Nadal is an elite player and possibly the goat no doubt about it but that doesn't mean he can't be beaten. Wawrinka defeated djokovic in 2014 ao that was also prime djokovic that doesn't mean wawrinka is not beatable. I appreciate Thiem despite having a single handed backhand able to go toe to toe with Nadal and edging him in the longer rallies and he is a down to earth person well. The difference between big 3 and other players for example like Thiem is that the big 3 can play at a very high level through out the year whereas Thiem is inconsistent but his very best level definitely has a chance to beat anyone one cannot say he has no chance at all. He has defeated nadal 6 times,djokovic 5 times and federer 5 times not many people could boast such stats other than andy murray.
@@michaelfinch2082 ok i can respect that, you make some valid points a have been courteous. I am still of the mind that nadal at his younger prime form on hard courts could edge thiem but thats just what i think. His AO 2009, AO 2012, US Open 2010 and US Open 2013 specifically. I am open minded and my opinion may change with time watching theim. But 5 grand slams on hard court is nothing to laugh at.
Berdych played superbly. It is unfortunate that the had to face peak Nadal, here. And think about it : had he won he would've faced an in-form Federer in the semifinal and, in case of victory, prime Djokovic in the final. It shows how competitive those slams were.
Being a Fed-fan, this match still remains one of my all time Australian Open favorite. The pace, the power, the defense, the way Berdych moved around that court like he was 185cm/6.1ft while pummeling the ball.. ..and yet Nadal came on top. Great game.

This years tournament would be one of my favorite tournaments in the open era. There just seemed to be something in the air, and the players seemed to spend more time in the "zone." A great match here, followed by two excellent semi finals (although the Djokovic Murray matchup can get a little drab to watch past a certain point).
I think It is, but AO 2009 is a close second. You have a ton of classic matches: Gasquet vs Gonzalez, Berdych vs Federer, Rafa vs Verdasco and Rafa vs Fed in one of the best finals ever
You can't get matches like this at the Australian open now that they sped up the courts to supersonic speeds to suit federer. What a beautiful tournament it was.
@@menon_ji4984 How is that relevant? Nole also wins in Paris (1000) and WTF. He is hardcourt masterclass and totally unbeatable in Australia. BUT that has nothing to do with that statement.
Berdych was playing out of this world Tennis, shame Nadal is such a bad match for the guy, he could've possibly beaten Djokovic or Murray in that tournament had he been in their half, he's certainly capable of that.
Aman Why is this a joke? He beat Djokovic and Federer back to back in Wimbledon 2010, Berdych is a pretty tough opponent on the big stages and when he's playing well he can win against anyone, Nadal is perhaps the worst match for Berdych because while Berdych's ground stroke are incredible he doesn't take them early and that's what Nadal likes the most, he has the time to return those blows with interest, Djokovic and Federer aren't as good at that particular skill as Nadal is.
Ertugrul Körpinar Not the best, there were many good matches that tournament tbf Federer vs Nadal, Murray vs Djokovic and obviously the final nadal vs Djokovic which is up there with the best grand slam finals
+Aman you're such a kid. Federer the 'GOAT' lost to delpo, federer lost to haas in stuttgart hahaha. And you do accept that hewitt, gonzales was weak era players, federer's 5 or 6 grand slams before 2005 were won in that era only, and nadal was still young, he celebrated his 19th birthday when he defeated federer at french open, very young, where was federer when he was 19. Nadal had 2 grand slams by the age of 20, federer has 0. Do you expect a kid(20-22 is still a very young age in tennis) to dominate the world? but still he managed to beat the 'GOAT' at 21 years old at grass in greatest wimledon final ever.
So called complete player 1 slam outside french in 6 fuckin years between 2011-16..xD. His age was 24-30. Now retards will again say what federer did during this time, right? Dont realize he was 30 in 2011..lol. He was losing to prime djokovic in 3 finals and a semi unlike Nadal who was getting his ass kicked by Darcis, ktrgios, fognini, pouille, brown, rosol, muller, versasco 1st round etc. Give it a break already, morons. Ur choice.
Aman yes what did federer do from 2012 to 2016 ? yeah nothing not even a grass slam, he was even struggling from 2008 to 2012 when nadal & djokovic reached their primes & he was still at his 20's back then & don't bring age coz it's just a number for him since his style of play is based on serve & finishing the points early with his volley & forehand, and he proved that when started winning slams & even dominating them in 2017 when there was no legit players mostly to compete against him so it wasn't about age but about competition federer couldn't dominate shit from 2008 to 2016 coz he had a legit competition unlike in the 2003-2007 era or the 2017-2018 who are both much weaker than the golden era of nadal & djokovic from 2008 to 2016, and tell me what did federer do in RG over the past 6 years too ? yeah nothing he couldn't even reach a QF & he got kicked out in the 3rd round by fucking gulbis back in 2013 & during that same year he got kicked out in the 3rd round of the USO by fucking seppi & out of the 2nd round of Wimbledon his so called kingdom by fucking stakhovski, he also got kicked out by tsonga in RG 2014, without mentioning that he lost to nobodies like fish back in his prime and lately to fucking kokinakkis & coric in miami & halle respectively just to name a few, and i think you forgot that in those 6 years nadal had his legendary 2013 season when he won 10 events including 5 Masters 1000 & 2 GS events in RG & USO and he dominated the clay season & the american hard court season all that against a prime djokovic that made your idol dissapear for 6 years, and your boy skipped the entire clay season with RG over the past 3 years since he knew what's waiting him there unlike nadal who never skiped an entire season like a coward for no reason at all & only to preserve his H2H vs his main rivale who's 23-15 overall & 9-3 in slams against him lmfao, to gain an unfair advantage over his opponents for the grass season & to avoid the humiliation to getting destroyed early in clay events & specialy RG so you give us a fucking break ! and why the fuck didn't you dare to reply to my other comment about the weak era players you fedtard cock sucker fuckboy ?
Berdych was hitting out of his mind but Rafa is a monster It's really scary to play Rafa in that form All I think about that even Berdych is too good for the current players
Yup if anyone deserves it it's him, 2 times a break up in the fifth set, and one final lost due to injury, bad luck for Nadal at the Australian Open for sure.

He was losing to prime djokovic in 3 finals and a semi unlike Nadal who was getting his ass kicked by Darcis, ktrgios, fognini, pouille, brown, rosol, muller, versasco 1st round etc. Give it a break already, morons. Ur choice.
Aman yes what did federer do from 2012 to 2016 ? yeah nothing not even a grass slam, he was even struggling from 2008 to 2012 when nadal & djokovic reached their primes & he was still at his 20's back then & don't bring age coz it's just a number for him since his style of play is based on serve & finishing the points early with his volley & forehand, and he proved that when started winning slams & even dominating them in 2017 when there was no legit players mostly to compete against him so it wasn't about age but about competition federer couldn't dominate shit from 2008 to 2016 coz he had a legit competition unlike in the 2003-2007 era or the 2017-2018 who are both much weaker than the golden era of nadal & djokovic from 2008 to 2016, and tell me what did federer do in RG over the past 6 years too ? yeah nothing he couldn't even reach a QF & he got kicked out in the 3rd round by fucking gulbis back in 2013 & during that same year he got kicked out in the 3rd round of the USO by fucking seppi & out of the 2nd round of Wimbledon his so called kingdom by fucking stakhovski, he also got kicked out by tsonga in RG 2014, without mentioning that he lost to nobodies like fish back in his prime and lately to fucking kokinakkis & coric in miami & halle respectively just to name a few, and i think you forgot that in those 6 years nadal had his legendary 2013 season when he won 10 events including 5 Masters 1000 & 2 GS events in RG & USO and he dominated the clay season & the american hard court season all that against a prime djokovic that made your idol dissapear for 6 years, and your boy skipped the entire clay season with RG over the past 3 years since he knew what's waiting him there unlike nadal who never skiped an entire season like a coward for no reason at all & only to preserve his H2H vs his main rivale who's 23-15 overall & 9-3 in slams against him lmfao, to gain an unfair advantage over his opponents for the grass season & to avoid the humiliation to getting destroyed early in clay events & specialy RG so you give us a fucking break ! and why the fuck didn't you dare to reply to my other comment about the weak era players you fedtard cock sucker fuckboy ?
This Berdych would finish the year as number 1 in the world in 2020
The 2012 AO level was insanne
Some serious firepower from both ends..!
Great match
Fast to the Furious
Rolan Garos champion.
Respect to Tomáš Berdych. What a great player. He fought hardly against Big three every time. I wish he plays now in this era
19:28 - 19:36 what a point from Rafa, deep cross devolution, forhand cross deep and finishim with outside forhand, is absurd
this is the match of the century
4:17
This nadal is unreal 😍
7:22 The ball was out and cost Nadal the set.
Yeah he shouldve challenged immediately not stop playing and not challenging
Berdych was hitting out of his mind but Rafa is a monster
It's really scary to play Rafa in that form
All I think about that even Berdych is too good for the current players
I never knew that berdych can play this good, all I can remember was his A attitude!
ロッド・レーバーアリーナかな？攻撃の展開がお互いすごいはやい
Outrageous match,Berdych was crushing the ball and Nadal hitting aggresive on every occasion
It's typical Rafa, no matter how hard you hit, he'll be in your face in every point.
I don’t know why Berdych leaves the tennis world , I f*****g love the way he smashes the ball so perfect 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Nadal deserves to have more than 1 aus open title
LOOOOOL
Yup if anyone deserves it it's him, 2 times a break up in the fifth set, and one final lost due to injury, bad luck for Nadal at the Australian Open for sure.
I think Murray deserved to win 1 too.
Gherbi Hicham And in 2010 he was injured against Murray and the way he was playing that year I really do believe he could’ve won all 4
@@JustMyOpinion05 verytrue
Djoko deserves more thon 10 AO☺️☺️😏
The 4:18 point was bizarre defense from Nadal… Berdych was unlucky to face the big 3 at their peak…
Very very very good match.
