Novak Djokovic overthrow Rafael Nadal in French open 2021 semifinals

-

 


Novak Djokovic accomplished the incomprehensible on Friday when he crushed Rafael Nadal 3-6, 6-3, 7-6(4), 6-2 subsequent to returning from a put down in the French Open semi-last at the Philippe Chatrier court in Paris.

The two hotshots delivered superhuman tennis as the 58th duel between them seemingly matched anything they had invoked against one another since they previously secured horns in 2006. 

Nadal, offering for a record-extending fourteenth French Open title, won the initial five games and looked on course to rehash his drubbing of the Serbian in last year's finals.

Nadal had just lost one set this competition entering the semi-finals, and that came in the quarter-finals against Diego Schwartzman. Four of the Spaniard's seven Roland Garros triumphs against Djokovic came in straight sets.

In her first snatch attempt, the Manipuri took her time and neatly hurled the barbell, trying 84kg. She then lifted 87kg on her next try before increasing the weight to 89kg, which was one kilogram more than her personal best of 88kg from last year's national championship. She was unable to beat her personal best and finished second in the snatch event with 87kg, trailing only leader Zhihui, who established a new Olympic record with a 94kg effort. Mirabai was overcome with emotion after learning she had earned a prestigious silver medal in weightlifting. She danced to celebrate her podium finish, turning her tears of pleasure into joy.
