    I remember watching this live on TV and that final seconds of the semis vs djokovic was so thrilling especially because Rafa was so far behind the baseline that you couldn't see him on screen , and then all of a sudden they showed him lying on the floor... he won! I will never forget that. Watching Rafa's matches gives me tremendous anxiety sometimes but I don't care.

    Rafa was soooo at his best in 2008, he literally adapted very well with the varying conditions by winning French Open on clay, Wimbledon on grass and the Olympics on hard, all within a span of just 3 months. It is so hard to even go through such a huge court transitions even on Grand slams French-Wimbledon-USO within a span of 6 months that literally he is the only one who achieved that in 2010, but going through that transition within 3 months in 2008 is absolutely surreal.

      They should make Olympics as 3000 points. Olympics is more difficult to win because of 4 year format and it is one in a life time chance. Next time you join Olympics you’re already 4 years older and chances are slimmer. I think they should weigh Olympics better than any GS.

      Tennis stars summon two watertight reasons for not taking the Olympics seriously. One, it breaks the rhythm of a tennis calendar, and two, in tennis, a Slam trophy carries substantially more mass than an Olympic medal. So, when the sport was reintroduced by the International Olympic Committee at Seoul, 1988, following a 64-year hiatus, only three of the men’s top 10 showed up (Miloslav Mecír won gold, Tim Mayotte silver).
      And the trend continues. Many of the top 10, 20,...skip the Olympics.

Go watch those matches in full, in both matches Roger had like 13 aces, 1 double, 60% first serve percentage, lots of break chances but Lleyton was at his unrelenting best... Not really surprising, throughout Roger's career his toughest match up has been defensive baseliners.

In 2000, he could've got bronze by beating Haas. In 2012, the Delpo match killed him. In 2016, he was unlucky to miss by barely any time due to injury. In 2020, his last chance I'd imagine is just delayed another year. Djokovic lost to Nadal in a thriller SF, and he would've won the final and had to settle for bronze in the end. In 2012, he somehow lost to Murray and then Delpo. In 2016, he was unlucky to just start his decline from being unbeatable and to lose to a Delpo who just came back. He would've won it if it was in 2020, but we don't know about whether he has improved much on HC or gone worse.

    The "Djokosmash" was a regular feature of Young Djoko's game. James Blake played Gonzalez in their semi and said at the time that Gonzalez had failed to admit that Blake's ball late in the match had hit his racket, He got support from American TV but nothing could be done about it since a player has to call that on himself. Blake might well have won the final had he played since he gave Young Rafa a lot of trouble on hard courrts. Rafa credited the "Olympic atmoshere" for his gold medal win. He'd arrived there very tired from his run to #1 but was inspired by the other athletes. YES! Rafa is my all time favorite athlete and always will be. I'm 83 btw.

    Everybody always forgets how full of unforced errors Djokovic was before 2010. He choked away multiple finals against Federer and was always super inconsistent on clay. Really topsy-turvy too, he'd be doing great one set and then be mentally in shambles half an hour later.
    Everyone has to start from somewhere!
    Unless you're Nadal, who was mentally indestructible from the day he turned 15.
