I had to google it TBH… had no clue it was that close. I had assumed one of them would be blowing out the other in h2h wins.

I just realized after you responded to me that I meant to quote Hawks talking about the girl beating the horse and not his h2h comment.

Looks like there is a good chance Nadal will pull out of singles and play only doubles with Alcaraz unfortunately.

30-29 is pretty insane. Makes me seethe like crazy too because Nadal left more h2h wins on the table than Djokovic due to injury or other bullshit circumstances, by a longshot.

It's Federer who got his ass blasted by both Nadal and Djokovic in the h2h.

Huge win for Nadal and Alcaraz in doubles taking out the seeded Argentina who was genuinely a great/accomplished pairing. Nadal looked fantastic and Alcaraz is green but his natural net instincts will play as he gets more comfortable with the format. Spain now takes their seeded draw, don't want to get ahead of myself but looks like a real chance at a medal. And now we wait and see if Rafa pulls out of singles or not.
