Intruz nie intruz ale dyskusja na blogu Pana Karola się pojawiła. O forum się mówi. Mówi o nim sam Pan Karol. Fejm się zgadza.

Wiedziałam, że mogę liczyć na Twoją uprzejmość.

[Robertinho]

No to kwestię rzekomego Karola Stopy mamy rozwiązaną. Prowokator sam się przyznał i przeprosił za całe zajście. Możemy spokojnie wrócić do trollowania merytorycznego pisania o tenisie, mam nadzieję, że prawdziwy Pan Karol Stopa pozostanie naszym czytelnikiem i będzie dalej wyławiać co smakowitsze kąski.

BRAIN GAME ANALYSIS
BRAIN GAME: RAFA'S HEAVY FOREHAND

BRAIN GAME ANALYSIS
BRAIN GAME: RAFA'S HEAVY FOREHAND
Paris, France
by Craig O'Shannessy | 10.06.2013
Craig O'Shannessy breaks down the Roland Garros final.

David Ferrer won more break points than anyone the past two weeks at Roland Garros but could not convert enough when it mattered to fall to Rafael Nadal 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 in Sundays final.

Ferrer led the tournament with 45 service breaks but could only nail 3/12 (25%) break points compared to Nadal’s 8/16 (50%) in a cold and wet encounter that made offense difficult to produce.

Ferrer misfired on his nine unconverted break points, committing three forehand errors while Nadal raised his level with three forehand winners. The other three opportunities went begging when Ferrer put a backhand into the net, missed a backhand return and Nadal crushed a cross court backhand passing shot.

Ferrer played brilliant tennis to reach his first Grand Slam final without dropping a set but Nadal presents his toughest match-up as he has to adjust to playing a lefty and specifically modify his natural Ad court patterns to attack Nadal’s backhand in the deuce court.

Nadal on the other hand was able to play a game style that he felt most comfortable with on a court he may as well call his own as he swept to a record breaking eighth title in Paris.

On the biggest points, on the biggest stage, the real difference between the two players was the venom they could bring with their forehands.

Nadal and Ferrer were very even with forehand errors (Nadal 22/Ferrer 20) and backhand errors (Nadal 23/Ferrer 22) and dead even with backhand winners with seven each. What separated the two Spaniards from the back of the court was that Nadal was able to manufacture almost double the amount of forehand winners with 19 to Ferrer’s 10. This was the difference maker on Sunday in Paris.

Half of Nadal’s eight converted break points finished with forehands as he crushed two forehand winners and Ferrer misfired with two forehand errors. Nadal’s forehand also forced a backhand error and generally dictated the baseline patterns of play from start to finish.

Nadal’s 19 forehand winners came from all over the court, with 10 standing in the deuce court and nine in the Ad court. Of the 10 deuce court winners, eight of them were when he was standing close to or inside the deuce court alley – an extreme position that offers three advantages for Nadal. First is an upgrade from his less potent backhand wing; secondly he now has all angles of the court available to attack and lastly he freezes his opponent and steals their anticipation with the wonderful disguise of the open-stance shot. Ferrer must wait until the ball is off Nadal’s racquet to figure out where it is going and that is too late to do anything with but react.

Ferrer did play the correct, aggressive game style in the final but the higher risk, lower percentage patterns were not something he was able to sustain for any length of time.

Ferrer directed almost three out of four (39/53 = 73%) first serves to Nadal’s backhand to try and gain an early advantage in the point. Ferrer directed all 26 of his second serves at Nadal’s backhand, but there was a massive difference in what Nadal hit between the deuce and Ad courts.

Ferrer was able to keep control on his second serve in the deuce court, making Nadal hit a backhand return all 13 times he served there but in the Ad court Nadal ran around and hit a forehand 12 of the 13 times Ferrer started the point with a second serve.

The battleground to upgrade to a forehand was also hotly contested with the first groundstroke hit after the serve. Ferrer actually did better in this area, hitting a forehand as the first shot after the serve 86% of the time to Nadal’s 58%.

When Ferrer could not find an advantage at the back of the court he snuck into the net behind some clever approach and drops shots to try and mix things up. Ferrer won a respectable 72% (13/18) of all points coming forward, including three of his five drop shots.

Ultimately Nadal triumphed for an eighth time in Paris because of a strategic edge from the back of the court with his heavy forehand and a mental edge that makes it so difficult for opponents to create fear or doubt in his mind. Ferrer said after the match that Nadal was the best mentally he has ever seen in his career.

It was always going to be a tough day for Ferrer to hurt Nadal because of the match up, the conditions and the occasion but the focus should be on celebrating Ferrer’s wonderful tournament and Nadal’s history making victory than a fairly routine, straight-sets final. After all, only once in the last 60 matches has Nadal fallen in Paris. Long live the king.

Craig O'Shannessy uses extensive tagging, metrics and formulas to uncover the patterns and percentages behind the game.

ROLAND GARROS 2013
Nadal's "Special" Moments, Silent Love
Paris, France


Rafael Nadal says his emotional win Sunday is just as special as his other major triumphs.

ATPWorldTour.com takes a look at the news and talking points at Roland Garros on the final Sunday.

Nadal: Every Major Is Special
It’s been a remarkable four months for Rafael Nadal, who has won seven titles from nine finals since making his return to the ATP World Tour in February from a left knee injury. While winning the Roland Garros title gave him great satisfaction, given everything he’s overcome, Nadal did not rank the achievement above or below any of his previous major successes.

“When you have period of time like I had, you realise that you don't know if you will have the chance to be back here with this trophy another time. So that makes this one very special,” Nadal said.

“But I had in the past, very special moments in important matches too. That is not fair, because today happened, I say that's the most special one. Today, this one is the most special one, but last year was very special; 2008 Wimbledon was very special; 2009 Australian Open was very special; 2010 US Open was just amazing because I complete[d] the Grand Slam. So all these moments in my career were very, very special for me.”

Silent Love
Nadal values the appreciation he receives from friends and family, but says he doesn’t expect a welcome home celebration in Mallorca, as the locals respect their hero’s right to privacy.

“It's true I like feeling that people love me. It's a very special feeling,” Nadal said. “But I don't need them to come to the airport to know that they like me. I am fortunate. Many people demonstrate their friendship to me each day and this is the most important. These are the most wonderful feelings when you feel people love you.

“Of course some guys like to see a crowd waiting for them at the airport. But in Mallorca, the best present they give me is to leave me alone, to give me peace, to let me get back to my real, normal life. Because when you leave a big event like this one, a big tournament like this one, you have no real life, like all players. I can't be a guy of my age. So being left alone, this is priceless.”

Gasol Makes Trip
Pau Gasol was among the celebrities in attendance for the all-Spanish final. The basketball star Tweeted a photo of himself with countrymen Ferrer and Nadal.

Suite Upgrade
Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan won their first Roland Garros title in 10 years Saturday evening in Paris and reflected on how their lives have changed since 2003.

“I just remember, we were sleeping on the floor at the Pierre et Vacances. A lot of things have changed in that way,” said Bob Bryan.

“We were trying to save a buck staying at the junior hotel. The lights, I remember you walk down the hall and it's all like motion sensors, so it would be dark and it could be light and then be dark behind you. It was just kind of a creepy roach motel. Now we have the suite at the Claridge. We're not so frantic in these moments. We have been there before. We have the formula for winning Grand Slam titles.”

Mike Bryan added, “We just decided to save a buck. I think it was only 100 Euros a night. Now Bob is paying 700 a night with extra room for the baby. The beds were horrendous. We put everything on the floor. There was one restaurant in the area.”

Trending On Twitter
There were a lot of creative ways to discuss Nadal winning an unprecedented eighth title at the same major. Here are some of the most interesting Tweets, including one from the main man himself.

Ja nigdy nie uwierzę, że tak znany dziennikarz jak Karol Stopa miałby chęć zarejestrować się na naszym forum.
Tak jak pisał mecenas DUN, Pan Karol nie zarejestrowałby się kilka minut przed wejściem na antenę.
Poza tym czy wyobrażacie sobie użytkownika który urodzil się w 1948 roku

[Bizon]

Czemu nie? Nie dyskryminuj ludzi z powodu wieku. Nie zdziwiłbym się, gdyby pan Karol był już zarejestrowany pod anonimowym nickiem

Ten sam użytkownik przełączył się w tryb offline dokładnie na kilka minut przed wejściem na antenę, które, przypomnę, opóźniło się z powodu wolniejszej jazdy kolarzy. Myślę też, że jakikolwiek "żartowniś" byłby skory do większej ilości żartów niż jeden wpis. Ponadto styl tej wypowiedzi mocno zajeżdża mi stylem Pana Karola, który w studiu Eurosportu ma oczywiście swobodny dostęp do komputera. Ja, mając trochę inne zdanie na temat Stopy niż większość forumowiczów, wcale nie przesądzałbym tak tej sprawy.

Zdecydowanie tak.!!!
Co ma wiek do prowadzenia dyskusji na forum.?

[Rodżer Anderłoter]

Wejście na antenę wbrew pozorom też nie ma tak dużego znaczenia wszak właśnie podczas komentowania Pan Karol potrzebuje dostępu do internetu, żeby podeprzeć się jakimś źródłem wiedzy podczas wspominania różnych faktów i podawania statystyk.

Mam na myśli, że po prostu wylogował się z forum.

[Rodżer Anderłoter]

Kliknął przycisk "wyloguj". Wszystko jasne. Rozumiem.

[jonathan]

Tę sprawę muszą zbadać niewątpliwie prawnicy. Ja, jako osoba, która pierwsza zauważyła tę rejestrację, mogę być świadkiem.

[Rodżer Anderłoter]

Ja chciałem dla żartu stworzyć konto: "Prawdziwy Pan Karol" i zaatakować potencjalnego oszusta i grozić mu sądem.

Konto "Pan Karol" mógł stworzyć także znany z poczucia humoru Pan Sylwester Sikora-kolega Pana Karola z redakcji Eurosportu.

Oczywiście, że wiek nie ma znaczenia.
Ale chciałbym to zobaczyć
Bardzo bym się zdziwił

[jonathan]

Rodżerze, coś zaczyna mi świtać odnośnie Twojej osoby.

[Rodżer Anderłoter]

To Dun mnie namówił. On był mózgiem operacji.

[jowy]

O co chodzi? Przecież Pan Karol Stopa napisał na blogu, że to nie on się rejestrował.
