Oh, and "recently", Djokovic is world no.1, Nadal no.2. I still have fond memories of Djokovic's straight-sets destruction of the Spaniard at last year's Australian Open and the end of year ATP Cup.

Sure you were. Every tennis thread has you stating that nobody knows about the sport except you.
Of course nobody believes that so you then made up stories about knowing a WADA expert and pro players etc.
And so it goes. You have no credibility and scrambling to find others who support your views isn't working either.
Stick to lobbing a deflated ball back and forth with your Gamma Bubba and another crippled oldster.

Gospel according to Armstronglivs

3. Nadal has long been regarded as the most suspicious athlete on the tour. Players, coaches and commentators have openly speculated about it since he came to attention on the tour in 2004. That suspicion has never gone away. Despite his suing the former French sports minister for claiming he doped, antidoping experts still comment about it, as I posted above.
Suspicion from the ignorant is meaningless.
Armstronglivs wrote:
4. Djokovic may have had a "bad day" but observing the match and considering their respective records the outcome said more than that. Djokovic is the world no.1 and one of the greatest players of all time, with a 22-10 record against Nadal since 2011, including a win over him at the French. He was an in-form player, having just won at Rome where Nadal was defeated by a journeyman, and yet he suffered possibly the worst beat-down of his career, losing as badly as a player ranked 200.
Nadal is stronger than Djokovic on clay, and stronger then Djokovic on the day.

5. the very qualities that make him unbeatable on clay are exactly those which can be enhanced by doping.

Stupid thread by someone who knows nothing about tennis- or much else.
One should assume that most if not all professional tennis players are doping. That does not mean that they are but that is the world of sports at present.
Testing in tennis is particularly poor and easy to work around.
Nadal defeated Djokovic due to the fact that Djoker was tired (from Tsitsipas match) and Nadal was fresh in conjunction with the fact that Nadal is the best clay court player in the history of the game by far and succeeds at Roland Garros in particular due to the clay there being slower/heavier than many other clay court venues. The courts at Roland Garros accentuate ball rotation more than just about any courts on earth. Nadal is not an MPH player he is an RPM player rotating his ball, particularly his forehand, more than any other player in the history of the game.
That means balls up in your eyes for three hours.
The slowness of RG's courts allow Nadal, one of the best movers in the history of the game also, to move off and hit even more FH's than he normally does and keep control of the points with the same "boring" pattern of grinding out crosscourt forehands into the righties backhands with the ball being even higher than normal. Ever try to hit a high backhand from 12 feet behind the baseline for three hours?
Once Nadal has created the opening then he rips his patented inside-out forehand into the opening- end of point.
Over and over and over....
Djoker is one the few that can neutralize this on hard court as he has a pinpoint BH down the line that can change the point pattern if the court is fast enough. Can't be done on clay with Nadal as he still has time to move over and crank forehands.
The only reason Schwartzman beat Nadal leading into RG this year was Nadal had a horrible day seerving.

I repeat, and it is FACT, NADAL owns H2H over Djoker since 2017.
this is symbolic, pie to the face!
Because you are counting clay - the doper's specialty. On hardcourt, Djokovic hasn't lost to Nadal in 11 matches. He's 20-7 on hardcourt, 22-10 overall since 2011; that is dominance. Off-clay he has 16 slams to Nadal's 7. Without the dirt Nadal is simply not in the same class. But you wouldn't know much about class.
@Rojo: this poster continues to verbally assault me. Please ban him
Speaking of class.... calling people morons, etc. , is not very classy.
Nadal is clean and pure as the driven snow. (or at least you have failed to prove otherwise)

No post you make is anything other than a personal attack - because you have nothing else to say and no knowledge of anything. But you are obsessed with me, as you follow me from thread to thread. I suppose stalking is a perverse kind of flattery, but debate with you brings to mind the expression 'wrestling with a pig' - one only gets covered with mud. I'll leave you in your trough.

So the main Covid denier on these boards has made his way across to join with the doping deniers. Of course he has.

I hope you don't mind, but I borrowed your own phrase with a minor tweak, as it seemed as good as any to sum up your contribution.

"One should assume that most if not all professional tennis players are doping." But not Nadal, it seems. I guess his doping is like the Covid virus that doesn't exist .

Yes of course- I stated that likely all players are doping and in your fevered imagination that equates with denying that there is doping.
You really are an unhinged whack job.

Yes, you did say that all players likely dope - but then you spent the rest of your considerable verbal flatulence effectively denying that Nadal dopes. Gollum manages a more consistent train of thought than you can, it seems.
