Even the air plays a role. Nothing new to them.
It was gusting.

Federer on playing in the wind: "You get to the point where you're just happy to make shots and not look ridiculous."

Christopher Clarey: Feel for Federer if you will but don't forget to nod to Nadal, who is at one with the clay, even when it's blowing in his face.

Christopher Clarey: To give you an idea of how gusty it's been, I've got red clay grit on my laptop keyboard and I'm in about the 30th row. Wouldn't want to be in a luxury box down low, but then nobody usually is.

Rafa put a hurting on Roger!!

Beast Mode!!
You knew that was coming. Federer can't touch Nadal's loopy balls on clay.
Rafa's shots weren't loopy, they were devastatingly crisp, powerful and accurate ~ Even his net shots!!

Wheeeww!!

Finally some opposition for Nadal in this event... rooting for Thiem tomorrow.
