This match happened almost 10 years ago. Time flies ridiculously fast!
yes it was also one of the last time when Nadal beat Djoker outside clay
@@novakgoatovicThe last time was Us open later that year
Say that again 😩
@@novakgoatovic watch US Open 2013 ..it's the last time they faced in US. .Djoke is lucky to escape from rafa in Canada and US
@adam_1196 idk. Post 2013 I think Djokovic could beat him every time. Only thing is he sucks in US finals so mabye not
Prime Rafa was amazing on hard courts. What a level.
The greatest rivalry in tennis. And we have had the opportunity to see it. I will speak about this to the new generations. These two men, and Federer, elevated the greatness of tennis greater than almost any other sport.
Federer-Nadal are way more unique rivalry.
Federer and Nadal elevated the game. Djokovic followed them and then leeched on Federer's advanced age and Nadal's injury problems, as well as the weakest era in tennis history, to top their achievements. Well done, I suppose!
@@user-rw7nx8fi7s Exactly. Just a lucky opportunist.
@@user-rw7nx8fi7syou are absolutely right but some people don't want to see it.
@@user-rw7nx8fi7s lmfao federer won 1 slam between 2011 and 2017, have some shame, 16/17 before nadal and djokovic showed up... Keep denying greatness, novak is the goat
In 2013 he showed what a healthy Rafa is capable of on hard courts, winning montreal, cinncinnati and the us open, it is a true miracle that he won 22 slams with all the time he was outside of courts.
Well, Nadal should have been done by 2009 or 2012 if it weren't for the modern medicine and physios. He's lucky to be born more recently than many other legends.
He was Healthy other years but couldnt repeat what he did in 2013 because Novak and Roger are better outside clay
@@SebastianSaavedra28 he lost his form in 2015-16 and had many injuries since 2017 atp finals ..so he skipped his favourite Canadian masters (2021,22,23)..US Open (21,23 ) and injured in US Open 18 .. Physically fit rafa is dangerous especially in American hardcourts
@@Laland_1196 yeah no doubt Nadal is very good especially at medium slow pace hardcourts
@@SebastianSaavedra28 yeah he is close to win Indian Wells 2022 also .. imagine defeating alcaraz and losing to fritz
2013 is one of Nadal's greatest seasons with 2 Slams (RG, USO) and 5 Masters (Indian Wells, Madrid, Rome, Canada, Cincinnati)👍Rafa is also the third man in history (after Rafter '98 & Roddick '03), to win "Summer Slam", which requires winning Canada-Cincinnati-USO in the same year⭐
Without injuries Nadal would have 30 slams 🦾
@@user-rw7nx8fi7sIf Federer had changed his racket earlier and had a better mental game, he would have 40 slams.
It is one of his best years, but a bit overrated at the same time. During this same year, Nadal also:
- lost to Horacio Zeballos in a clay final(yikes)
- Monte Carlo loss to Djokovic
- Wimbledon loss to Darcis in round 1(yikes)
- Beijing loss to Djokovic
- Shanghai loss to Del Potro
- Paris loss to Ferrer
- WTFs loss to Djokovic
- Won 2 slams, but sucked at the other two
It was a great year for sure, but definitely not better than 2008 and 2010.
@@jacobschmidt2709 beside Djokovic and Del Potro who played like a god in those matches, yeah man, 2013 had some of Rafa's questionable loses 😂 talking about his greatest season, let say 2010 is definitely the best in general, he played well on all surfaces ✅️ In 2008, Rafa played great right in the middle of the year, from Monte Carlo to Olympic, after that, he fazed out a little bit 👍 In 2017 & 2019, he won 2 Slams and some Masters, but surely not at his best like '08, '10, '13 ✅️
@@jacobschmidt2709 Between IW R2 and the final in Beijing, he had 0 losses on hard. From March 'till October. That's 3 Masters and one 1 GS on hard. The level he displayed on HC that year was the best in his career. "Won 2 slams, but sucked at the other two". He did not play the AO in 2013 due to a stomach virus. That means he sucked at it? 😂 You mentioned only his losses, but outside the Darcis match, they all came in finals or semifinals of those tournaments. In addition, he won RG, Madrid and Rome that year. So how is his 2013 season overrated? In 2008 and 2010 he did not come back after a 7 month injury, so what he pulled off in 2013 is gotta be the best comeback season ever seen in tennis, on a par with Roger Federer's 2017.
This is peak Rafa in hard. Won the US Open, Canada, Cincinnati and Indian Wells.
The craziest thing about their rivalry is that this high quality, intense, super competitive match with both of them at their peaks, is probably only the 5th or 6th best match of their careers. That’s how good their rivalry is.
Great match with intense and heavy rallies. Both players at the top of the game. Nadal able to leverage his hard court game through to the 2013 US Open. The crowd pro Djokovic.
They WERE pro Djokovic, weren't they ? That's what I remembered also. From what I remember crowd was often pro Djokovic against Nadal when he was still the underdog in the rivalry, till like 2014. People today act like Djokovic has never been cheered for in his life "because he's Serbian", especially against Fedal, so I doubt my own memory sometimes as well.
In Rome the crowd was always pro-Djokpvic, regardless of the year. I remember at Rome 2018, Rome 2019 and Rome 2021, the crowd was mostly rooting for Novak over Rafa. The same in Australia, because there're so many Serbians there.
@@jameswalker6864it has nothing to do with Serbia..Novak is loved more than rafa honestly due to his open personality. It's just Federer and Nadal fans always come together when one of them is playing Novak.
@@Omkar529 until he starts kicking Chokerer ass in GS, then his fanboys would come to nole's matchs only to boing him.
@@TheFpzsomb Most people in every fanbase is like that. They will root for a threat to their favorite to lose.
What really makes a difference in Nadal’s best years (2008,2010,2013,2019) is how incredible his backhand depth and precision is. It’s really as much of a weapon as his forehand when he’s at his best, on any surface 🔥
2017 too. And in 2022 RG, despite being super old and having a bad mobility, he destroyed with his backhand Ruud in the RG final.
@@jameswalker6864 I remember seeing a rally in that match against Ruud where he was outhitting Ruud's forehand with his backhand and just having to laugh at the absurdity of it
Great insight. But you missed 2017 especially At RG, when his BH was as equal to hi Goated FH. The angles pace flatness he was getting ( in 2017) was like playing two monstrous FHs at once(like Ruud himself said after the final), That level of his BH was reached again In 2022 final but, Ruud's lack of depth behind his loopyshots also helped it a bit allowing Rafa to take it early and find angles opening up the court.
2008 circa his BH was defensively so great. I miss him so much as a lifelong fan. Pray Daily that he has one final run at RG.
2017 >> 2019
Always brilliant to watch Nole and Rafa 👍🤩
10 years on ridiculous level 🤯 tennis can never be this good again
What a high quality match. Both at or near their absolute prime. Great stuff. I wish we could have a round Robin tournament of the Big 3 at age 29-30 on all three surfaces 😊
Nah bro, They're in their prime, you're speaking of peak. Peak usually lasts 1 or 2 seasons, prime is multiple seasons and is alot longer
Realistically, the only seasons of the big 4 in their primes that overlap, were 07-12.
Over that period, Nadal won 15/24 Masters 1000, 9/13 Grand Slams, and 0/1 ATP Finals; Federer, 9/18 Masters 1000, 8/14 Grand Slams, and 3/4 ATP Finals; Djokovic 13/23 Masters 1000, 5/9 Grand Slams, and 2/2 ATP Finals; whilst Murray won 8/11 Masters 1000, 1/5 Grand Slams, and 0/0 ATP Finals.
During those years, they won 23/24 grand slams (made 24/24 finals), 45/54 Masters 1000 (made 49/54 finals), and 5/6 ATP Finals (made 5/6 finals).
Realistically, Djokovic wasn't at his prime in 2007. And Nadal wasn't on hard either.
@@jameswalker6864 Being a top 3 player in the world, Djokovic definitely was in his prime in 2007. He wasn't at his peak, though. 07-12 only represents the time all 4 were in their primes simultaneously. The only shared peak seasons they had were 09, 11, and part of 12 (which imo would have been the best big 4 year were it not for Nadal's injuries).
As for Nadal's HC prime, that didn't really come until after his 2 disaster seasons in 15/16 (even though he was great 2010 and beyond as well), at which point he began altering his game. He generally was out of prime by then.
True Legends! Will miss them.
Crazy how even after 10 years Novak is still at the top of the game and after 9 years, Rafa was too. The way these legends have pushed each over the years to become better is incredible and now a 36 year old Novak has a 20 year old Alcaraz as his main rival
Crazy bro
The two best tennis players in history 🎾😍
This is what it looked when nadal really was healthy
The longevity matters, nothing else :)
Indeed Nadal is the GOAT and this match is just evidence of that.
@@Max-yp1iw Only peak level matters.

2013 is his best year. It was the best mixture of masters 1000s and slam results. Also there’s no shame in losing to Novak and Delpo
@stephcurran1724 You'd be insane to call a 2 slam year better than a 3 slam year. In 2010(AO Q, FO W, Wimby W, and USO W), Nadal had better slam results compared to 2013(AO DNP, FO W, Wimby 1R and USO W). The Spaniard won a slam on all three surfaces in 2010 as well. In 2008, Rafa had an incredible run from IW through the USO. His 2008 slam results(AO SF, FO W, Wimby W, USO SF) are superior to 2013 as well. 3 slams + better slam results and 2 slams + OG + better slams results>> 2 slams + 1R Wimby exit + AO DNP. 2008 and 2010>> 2013.
@@stephcurran1724 Lol you're crazy bro
Indeed, of the three years, 2013 is the least GS-friendly of the three.
But on top of that, he won numerous matches and was ranked #1 for the year, surpassing prime Djokovic. And his winning percentage was over 90%.
In total, I don't think 2013 is inferior to the other two years.
2008 and 2010 lost even more than this year. No year is perfect, but they are all great seasons.
Nobody in this new generation including Carlos could beat either one of these legends in their Prime.. They played on a completely different level.
Pipe down bro. Djokovic is still in his prime.
@@chiefnama790no. He’s playing good…but not remotely close to his prime. Compare his mobility here to now lol
@@mikemoggerson6651 ah bon...et a l'OA 2023 vous en aviez pensé quoi ?
@mikemoggerson6651 Mobility is not at its prime, but it's still really high. However, he has a BIGGER forehand, BETTER serve, and a BETTER net game than he's EVER had in his career. A slightly better backhand, too.
He is still VERY much in his prime. Acting like he isn't because he's 36 is just LAZY analysis.
@@chiefnama790 Entièrement d'accord avec vous 👍
10 years already and what a match it was… incredible level from both parts!!! Best match of 2013 for sure (ATP Tour).
I watched this match live on TV, it was midnight in my country, the match was an absolute banger🔥
holy trinity of nadal djokovic atp matches: 2009 madrid, 2011 miami, 2013 canada.
Australian open 2012!
@@BusinessofGood that's a grand slam, grand slams are organized by ITF. obviously they have many other great matches at slams.
I remember playing night tennis while this match was being played live. I kept checking the score in between games and eventually just told my buddy to pause the match so I could see how it ended. I cant believe that was 10 years ago!!! Thanks for all the memories fellas
10:36 What a slide and how he caught the ball with his hand...though he didn't make it.🔥🔥🔥
10:11 is the best shot of the match, incredible nerve
It really.isnt
@@thirstybonsai1888it is
Back when match highlights from 2013 were much better quality then what we have now in 2023
Djokovic shots and depth are amazing.
Regardless of whether your Nadal, Federer or Djokovic fan - it incredible that these guys used to clash so frequently in their primes and slug it out like this match, week after week, slam or masters, new gen is nowhere close to replicating this level of consistency (bar maybe Alacarz as he develops)
Thank you for capturing one of my favorite matches. Both players were just crushing the ball. Its the best clean ball striking I’ve ever seen.
Sad knowing we might never see them play each other again. We were truly privileged
Truth. End of an era
Why what happened?
I remember Nadal had just recovered from injury on 2013... and won all US Open Series including Cincinnati, Montreal and US Open ... deserves more extra prize of USD 1 million..!
11:14 The rally you all came to see.
What a match!
But this has to be the worst final set tiebreak Djokovic has ever played. Errors on nearly every point.
I think Novak talked this over with Nadal at the net after the match.
@@letrantrung1 Yup, Nadal apologized to Djokovic at the end of the match. And also put his racket up to apologize right when the incident happened. Totally legal shot but IMO one should definitely apologize after hitting that shot.
Thanks! I didn't want to watch the entire video.
@@J_NoNamesLeft73 yeah, I am a fan of Nole but I remembered clearly that they talked this over and Nole did not say about it like he did to Norrie 2 months ago.
@@letrantrung1 Norrie apologized but he just put his hand up for maybe 2 seconds (after turning his back completely) and walked away and after that did nothing. Djokovic never really gave Norrie a chance to apologize at the net but I think Norrie had no intention of doing so even if Djokovic didnt do a no look handshake. That is the only no look handshake I can ever recall Djokovic doing (if someone else knows of another instance of Djokovic doing a no look handshake win or lose, I'd be very interested to see it so please let me know!).
Meanwhile Rafa actually waited at the net for Djokovic to turn around and was looking at Djokovic when he put his hand up to apologize. Plus Rafa made sure to say it in words to Djokovic at the net after the match was finished. Additionally the big 3 all have immense respect for one another and their handshakes are always very respectful so Novak was never really gonna do a no look handshake with Rafa.
Go back to Wimbledon 2019 where Nick did it to Rafa intentionally (even admitting so in press) and didnt apologize...the handshake afterwards wasnt a no looker but was a very quick one.
Besides 2010 USO and maybe 2012 AO, this was the best that Nadal ever played on hardcourts. Yet he still needed a 3rd set tiebreak to put away Djokovic.This speaks volumes to how difficult it was to beat prime Djokovic on hardcourts.
naah it had to be Australian open 2009 and then US 2010 and 13
@mysticnomad89 2009 AO was perhaps the best in terms of movement, but 2010 and 2013 Nadal was more complete, had a better serve, and was a much better ballstriker. Compare 2010 USO's Nadals serve to 2009 AO Nadals serve, and you'll see that it is not even close.
@@jacobschmidt2709Nadal also beat Djokovic much more easily at the USO 3 weeks after this though. 6-2 3-6 6-4 6-1
2009 AO for sure must be included in the best ever Rafa hardcourt levels.
Djokovic being a hardcourt king needed tight 5 sets in Australia and tight 3 sets in Miami 2011 to beat rafa in hardcourts ..this also speaka the volume how difficult to beat prime Rafa in all surfaces
Ese verano del 2013 con el summerslam ganado fue magico,el saque y el reves estaban muy bien,aunque considero aun que el 2010 fue su mejor forma en hardcourts ya que era un rafa mas delgado y rapido y con un saque a un nivel fantastico.Que buenos recuerdos de RAFA, como paso el tiempo.
Damn i will miss these matches
J’adore le respect du public / No shouting just before the serves … real respect from the crowd We are the best crowd on est les meilleurs !
Lucky are those who enjoyed watching the big three while acknowledging their achievements 💯you didn’t have to take sides.
Haven’t seen the yellow shirt guy play before, but I reckon his style would suit clay
To be fair, the reaction is almost uncontrollable when you get hit in the face like that. Several pranks with thrown footballs and such between friends that were more accurate than you ever expected have proved that idea.
Real Rafa died in 2014 in the other side roger is getting worse every year since 2013 . That explains why novak dominated in this era because since 2011 he is getting better and continue congrats for him he deserves it
I was agreeing with you until I read the very end of your comment.
Novak always modified his game that's why he got better success.
How many slams rafa won after 2014?
I’m not a Novak fan, but pretty scary 10 years later Novak just bageled a top 10 player (Fritz) in a straight sets demolition
USO gonna be very interesting
Novak can reassert his ownership of the younger guys or…
I think this is one of Rafa's last times beating Djokovic on a hard court. If memory serves the last coming later this year at the US Open. Hope he comes back soon.

Novak post 2010: the only player against Rafa who if both players play well, Novak wins
On hard courts that’s statistically quite true.
It’s amazing that just 10 years later Djokovic will be the best player of all time, without question, and that Nadal would be making bitter statements about Djokovic’s success. What once was a rivalry is now a complete objective triumph for Novak. The debate is finished. Novak is the best player of all time and the most elegant and beautiful player of all time.
What bitter statements had nadal made
Back when Nadal didn’t hit his forehand cross court over 80% of the time. He’s lost the variety he had with it in his prime
The real GOAT
I agree, maybe i’m delusional but i genuinely think injuries stopped him from winning at least 4 more slams
@@duncan3932 You might be right but with the way Nadal plays, it's no wonder he has had so many injuries. Djokovic is much more economical with his movement and energy.

Interesting thing is, when Nadal was injury free, H2H record record vs both Federer and Djokovic was heavely in favour of Nadal. Shows how good of a player he was in his prime.
Only when he lost his serve speed and got injury prone H2H started to equalize.
No it's cause novak played unbelievable tennis.
Does anyone know why the ball looks like it’s travelling through the air so slow?
Probably combination of camera angle and slow court. Also, Nadal and Djokovic were never the biggest hitters on the tour.
The great thing about Rafa in 2013 is that he took the #1 spot for the year from prime Djokovic.
He is probably the biggest difference from 2010.
There is no doubt that Rafa had a great showing in 2010, but I don't think there were enough threats to him.
Novak, who was in poor form at the time, and Roger, who was past his peak.
Compared to 2010, 2013 must have been a very difficult environment in terms of having a prime Djokovic.
For Rafa, prime Novak is the opponent who is the worst match for him, but even so, they were even at 3-3 that year.
He outscored him in points for the year.
In addition, Rafa's winning percentage exceeded 90% for the first time in his career that year.
This was after competing in numerous tournaments.
Without a doubt, this is one of his best seasons.
I REAALY LOVE RAFA
RAFA ❤
2013 fue el último año en q Rafa le ganó a novak en dura.
nadal is goat because his behaviour and great tenis temperament
Nice Djoke 😂😂
If Montreal is a slower court then I think it shows how important surfaces are in tennis, especially for Rafa as no player has done more to actually create a GOAT DEBATE.
I’ve said that the only body representing global tennis is the ATP, there’s no competitor. ATP will decide what points are allocated to what tournament. For example, I’m shocked at how low down the pecking order Queens grass tournament is, only 7% of all tournaments are on grass. As we all know the majority are on hard and favour the hard court player. ATP could easily change the points system and make the Latin America clay tournaments an ATP 1000. They don’t.
So based on all that in this era of tennis, Djokovic - hard court beast, Nadal - clay court beast, Federer - grass court beast (only just though), plus Federer transcends eras as he’s 5 years older minimum than the other two so gets a slight pass from me.
Vamos Rafa! Vamos!

To say players like Nadal or Djovik are "better" than Federer makes me cringe. Federer had the supernatural skill and and talent that only Sampras and some other classic players had. The only reason Dj could beat Federer is because he's in the condition of an Olympic athlete and very strong plus accurate with really no weaknesses. In addition he's at a perfect height to hit hard and still move fast. So he really had nothing going against him physically but he or Nadal could still never pull off some the skilled shots Federer did so often and they rely on the two handed backhand crutch for control. I'd still rather pay to watch Federer or wish I could play like him or Sampras in his prime.
Tennis tv promotes well searching for Djokovic loss.. if I just follow tennis tv, would think Novak is not even in top 50 as he always losses in highlights in tennis tv..
