Fun fact - Nadal only won 4 points in the third set… Murray went God mode
Only because Nadal went Trash Mode.
@@masters.1000 yeah sure everytime other player starts playing very good tennis and does not allow Rafa to play then automatically fans goes ( ohhh Rafa was not playing good he has a injury here and their) like other than excuses acknowledge the great play by opponent and give appreciation to it.
@@Saitama-sense0 yes you are right ,I have seen this before also.Whenever Rafa loses "he was injured"
@@Saitama-sense0 So you really believe Murray did beat the best version of Nadal... My god.
@@masters.1000 You are right on the money. Nadal was trash that off season after all that Djokovic did to the best version of the Spaniard the same year. He had no energy anymore
Murray was fucking lethal that day. That first highlight of the third set... absolutely out of this world. Great reminder of why we used to say "Big 4" back in the day.
Andy's flat backhand was a killer shot in his prime days
No shot played by any player is flat is always has some kind of spin and Murray backhand absolutely no way it’s flat it has as good of top spin as nadal
People forget how good Murray used to be, and why Djokovic has always openly admired Murray’s return of serve and backhand. Whilst Murray’s peak may not have been as long as the Big 3 and his performance now may be somewhat dented as a result of his injuries; he was incredible at his best. You don’t get to be World Number 1 in the Big 3 era by accident, good fortune or coincidence.
I 100 percent agree. Murray was considered to be a better first serve returner than Djokovic.
Sorry he was touted to be as successful as big 3... Not be a 3 slam wonder..
@@abeguy7981 3 Slam wonder 😂😂 stop being a clown mate
@@aidanmcgunnigal9394 Lol.. so Murray won 300 slams eh ??
Absolutely! P.S I'm a Nadal fan
Holy hell! I remember watching this match as a kid and was just being completely stunned by how much of a beast Murray was at the third set. Heartbroken as a Rafa fan like never imagined he would be bageled just like that.
Wow. This is just some random ATP 500 final between members of the big4, but it still has better quality and more excitement than some of the masters 1000 finals we get nowadays…
*most
Slam*
This version of Murray would be world n°1 nowadays without even trying
But hard to maintain this type of game for long period except GOATovic who never drops his game since last 17 years or so.
@@user-jo5wn8rm2zDjokovic was pretty average from the beginning of 2017 to the middle of 2018
Murray’s return and backhand was the best in the business. I modeled my return after him in the juniors.
To all the Gen Z's who don't understand why there was a Big Four.....this is why.
Nadal losing 7 of 10 finals in 2011: One of his worst yet one of his best years at the same time
Rafa always had the game to beat Djokovic on any surface even in 2011, but he let Djokovic get in his head, just like Fed let Nadal get in his, tennis is heavily heavily psychological, much more than any other sport in my opinion.
@@valdencorr2861 In the 2nd half of the year it may have been partially psychological, but I also think Nadal had just never played against that version of Djokovic and was caught off guard. He had a clear game plan from playing Djokovic in 2006-2010 and largely dominating the H2H. But in 2011 he sees Djokovic but amplified to a ridiculous degree and didn’t know what to do. In 2012 he made the right adjustments by playing more aggressively and dictating with his forehand, rather than trying to go toe-to-toe like he used to. Hence why the AO final was so close and Nadal dominated on clay.
@@SJ-di5zu nice
@@valdencorr2861 as a Rafa fan, he simply gets outplayed in hardcourts. This isn't just from 2011. He has been getting outplayed by Novak before 2011 as well. Nadal has always struggled in HC especially indoors. Nadal's best in HC is simply not enough for Novak at best. Other can't beat Novak in HC let alone Nadal. About the straight sets victory, it is bound to happen because of Nadal's weaker serve and Djoker best return, so he gets broken easily. With that said, i would like if Nadal proves us wrong and he defeats Djoker atleast twice in HC before their career ends.
Ya i feel he had the game to beat Djokovic a few times in 2011 but I think he played differently than 2010. Shorter balls, trying to out rally Djokovic and not being the aggressor.@@SJ-di5zu
If anyone ever says Murray didn't have a very high peak game, recommend them Sets 2 and 3 of this match.
Alcaraz already has a higher peak. Querrey, Tsonga, and even clownfils have higher peaks than Murray as well.
@@aizensousuke7107 watch the Olympics 2012 semifinal and final, and then come back to me
@@aizensousuke7107 bro he won 9 titles 13 finals and 78 wins in the year 2016 with Wimbledon win . final of french open and ao if that is not higher peak than querry tsonga and then what is you can even compare his 2016 season to fedrers 2008 season where he was playing very good . Alcraz also pretty Nice player and talent but not as good as murray in his peak
Paul cofflied recommend end of 2016 season when he became no 1 in big 3 era

Murray’s backhand = 🤯🤯🤯
Deadly backhand
That’s all he has in matches at highest level. His forehand is technically deficient as stated by Mischa Zverev.

What an era for Andy Murray! It's almost strange to look back 10 years and see Murray turning the tides on Nadal this dramatically! Murray at his best was truly exceptional!
andy's backhand, my god
Balls flying in this particular court sounds so good!
Andy at his prime could face and win over any of the big 3. Fantastic tennis player and way underrated.
Wow, Murray at his best was a beast sniffing the air in the clouds of the big 3!
wow Andy! what a backhand you had then!
One of the best match of Andy Murray
Omg I love this match thank you so much for the upload!!
Murray bageled Nadal that last set?? Unbeliebbble!!
He did it twice during his career. Rotterdam 2009. Also the final.
Lights out Tennis From Andy Murray 💥
Murray is such a bloody beast!
Flat CC backhand into Nadal's forehand side always works well. Even as recently as the French Open 2022 - Zverev with his glorious two-handed backhand was punishing Nadal with that shot.
Tennis TV I love you for this video
Can we have this Murray back please, he would be in the shout for World no.1 no exaggeration
Has reached world number one in 2016
Murray escaping from 0-40 when he was up 3-1 in the 2nd set to hold serve in that game really turned the match around in his favour, along with him changing from the red shirt to the black shirt Murray's aggressive play in the 2nd and 3rd sets is great to watch
I swear Andy would have won many more slams if he was more aggressive more often, even the other day against Tsitsipas he had multiple opportunities to attack and in important moments and he went for the safe option instead and ended up losing the rally.
If it wasnt for djokovic, 2011 wouldve been nadals best year ever. Reached finals everywhere, throughout the whole season, on all surfaces, something he has never done in his career.
2008, 2010 ?
@@theobecquet8477 not even close. In 2011 he wouldve won indian wells, miami, monte carlo, barcelona, madrid, rome, roland garros, and that streak wouldve got him to 41 wins in a row, wimbledon, us open. A truly ridiculous what if
That version of Djokovic was scary.
@@bodzarnpertrvick2869 In 2008, Rafa won 32 matches in a row over the 3 different surfaces, won Hamburg, Roland Garros, Queen's, Wimbledon, Toronto and Olympics. That's not an "If", that's real
@@theobecquet8477 novak was nothing in 2008 by comparison
Vintage Mury GOAT.
Отличный теннис в исполнении мастеров!
Please upload more of these famous games.
I am so so miss this scoreboard
My biggest regret watching Murray is wondering how much more he might’ve won if he didn’t get injured. I’m sure he and Djokovic would’ve dominated up til even now. Murray would be close or past 900 wins. He would be 55+ tournament wins. And at least 2/3 if not more, slams. He would’ve stayed world number one for all of 2017 and into 2018. Out of any sporting career I wish his wasn’t ruined by injury.
if if if doesnt exist
@@daniyalk5007 it depends who you are, I think it’s a stupid quote 😂
@@daniyalk5007 yeh I know. But am I not allowed to write down what I think?
@@daniyalk5007 explain “stupid quote” ? Cos all I’m saying is what I wished happened. This is in no way me being salty. It’s just something I wish never happened to him.
Cant believe this was the Murray earlier. Idk why he switched to such a defensive game later on in his career. That cost him a lot including his career threatening injury
Murray era un monstruo en su prime. Mejor que cualquiera de la nueva generación
He was just lucky this time........
He isnt even better than Cilic and Wawrinka
@@nikovidovic3410 why you bring up cilic 😂 he won 1 slam, nothing else, better name del Potro
@@Max-yp1iw He also won just one Slam moron, and Cilic has 4 finals
Cilic would kick MURRAY ass when playing his best
Very good game for Murray!
Big 4😎🤙
Craazy high level shit here.
This Murray would devour the current atp tour perhaps only barring Novak given he can play his best.
Not knocking Alcaraz, he's an ATG in the making, but Murray had to accumulate almost 13000 points just to topple Novak in 2016. The fact that a world number 1 can reach the top with barely 7000 points nowadays tells you it was a far more difficult era to summit back then.
@@paulcoffield2102 Carlos does have the potential to be one of the greats, too early to say whether he will be an all time great. Hard to beat the records of Novak and Rafa and the influence Roger had on the sport. He does have it a tad easy, had the places been switched between Andy and Carlos, Andy would be dominating the tour and Carlos perhaps would've succumbed to peak big 3. Definitely agree with you, Andy had it tougher back then. He's a true champion in my eyes.
@@paulcoffield2102 Another reason is that rankings are a mess in particular this year. Politics didn't let Novak play AO, USO, he didn't get any points for Wimbledon. Had that not been the case, world no.1 would have been Novak. Despite AO, USO if Wimbledon gave points, Rafa would be world no.1 not Carlos.
@@paulcoffield2102 Well there’s quite a bit of season left to go, and Wimbledon didn’t count this year, so that’s like 5000 available points, but I get what you mean. The thing is, Nadal and Djokovic don’t care about rankings right now. Winning a slam is as difficult as ever, because that’s where Nadal and Djokovic bring their absolute best and focus. But getting #1 isn’t as hard as Nadal prioritizes resting his body and family matters, and Djokovic also tends to rest quite a bit nowadays. I’d also argue the competition in 2016 was kinda weak. Nadal and Federer were both injured, and didn’t really play well when healthy. The generation of Zverev, Medvedev, Tsitsipas and Thiem still were practically teenagers. The Berdych, Ferrer, Tsonga generation was on its last legs (and a bit weak anyways). Wawrinka was playing well but inconsistent as always, mostly peaking for slams. That left Djokovic (who lost motivation midway through the season) and Murray to dominate the sport. I guess Milos Raonic was pretty good…
@@SJ-di5zu perfectly summed up. After an overall lackluster season for tennis in 2016, it got rejuvenated with both Federer and Nadal coming back to the limelight and dominating whole season.
I love Nadal's long pants style.
missing tennis at that time
On his day could beat anyone and he did,I think now tho he’s on borrowed time and he knows it my favorite player to watch what could he have won if it wasn’t for the other three
I remember some of these matches like they were yesterday. Where the hell has the time gone?
Well done champ ! 🇬🇧
Murrays ball Speed triple of today... Top level match anyway
I remember watching this match, i was going to turn off the tv after the first set because it was pretty boring, after a few games i had to watch it carefully, amazing performance from murray, it was like nadal were it hit by a train😂
Wow. Murray Bageled Nadal ! Just unbelievable.
Murray was hitting backhand very similar way how Federer beat Nadal at Australian open in 2017.
Good upload. For all his achievements, Nadal does have a habit of getting bageled more than he should - I think it's only really Djokovic who hasn't managed it yet.
I cannot find the whole replay on this match anywhere. Can someone help?
Brutal and fine at same time.
This is more interesting than this year's Australian Open final.
To win 6/0 over Nadal is unbelievable. Murray was untouchable.
Murray was an Show-Stopper😭 I still can’t recover on how he got bageled
It is an super match
Murray. WOW!!!
andy's backhand crosscourts were merciless here.
A shame Andy would only very rarely reach that level like he did in the third
I miss that Murray.
Love sport
Absolutely Vintage Sir Andrew Barron Murray..
Murray will end up being the greatest player to never be considered in GOAT debate. What an era that was, the greatest era in tennis thanks to the benchmark Federer set in which Djokovic was the best
No shame in coming up against the 3 best to ever pick up a racquet.
Murray sure was a beast in this match 🔥🎾
Upload Nadal vs Murray 2011 Monte Carlo and 2014 Rome extended please..
Andy Murray is amazing and my all time favourite player and always will be xxx ❤xxx
6-0 Wow
Murray had some backhand
back in 08-12 we had prime big4 members in the atp500s finals. Now it's people like Ben Shelton that won this tournament. If this currently isn't weak era i don't know what is.
11:50学校のチャイム聞こえるの草
Wow! How many times was Nadal ever bageled?
Destroyer
They met only 1 masters final and 0 GS final tho
Japanese crowd were so cute hah!😅 i am scared of the west crowd😂
Was there ever a more dangerous player than Rafa, when break point down.
Pasado el primer set, Murray se quitó la camiseta de la selección española porque era ya darle muchas alas al Rafa... 😆
En los años 2010 se creó el big 4 Murray demostraba estar al nivel de los 3 y lo demostró con lujos y detalles en este partido. Palizon
Yes Murray played well but keep in mind it's 17,7 h2h in favor of Nadal. Nadal led 7,2 in slams against Murray with 2 defeats at Wimbledon where Murray won 2 of his 3 slams. KZhead videos are a good way to project a player as damn good without showing the overall picture. It was a completely one sided rivalry with Murray never being a huge threat on slam circuit. That's where big 4 turned out to be a misnomer...
cry more
Biased ATP definitely won't come up with extended highlights of Querrey vs Djokovic, when Paris Masters is around. They could have shown Rafa vs Troicki, 2010SF but they continue to insult Nadal, over and over again.
What the heck was Nadal doing aiming at Murrays backhand constantly
Probably tanked the match after that first set
No he didn't 😳😳😳
Dopal got clapped
Murray of today, needs to slim down. He is too big to be as mobile as this.
Bruh he’s injured. I’ve gotten to this point it’s almost impossible when battling big injuries and surgeries. Just as Federer couldn’t come back from his knee, Murray has a whole fake hip
👍
😮
卧槽，爵爷牛逼！
year of nadal losing finals
Aww yess Nadal got his butt spanked
日本にまた戻ってこねぇかなぁ
Murray defeat Nadal only 7 times
Hope rafa never plays again
Rafiol was injured
Yeah, he is always injured when he loses. What's new?
@@davsm7537 that guy is a Djokotard trying to diminish Nadal's name as his life's purpose. No one ever said before Rafa being injured here.
What an excellent performance by Andy. I really miss pre-hip injury Murray. When the Scott played at his peak, he was very close to the level of the big 3. Nadal is a great player, legend and one of the best, but certainly one of the most overrated players in the history of our sport. Some claim the man is as or more all-around than Federer and Djokovic, but this is completely absurd. Let's look at some of the facts: - 0 World Tour Finals Titles - Poor results indoors - Horrible results at Wimbledon 2012- 2017 - 1-7 vs Twilight Federer that is 5 to 6 years older - Winless against against Djokovic and Federer off of clay since 2013 and 2014 - Loses to mid tiers in slams such as Muller, Tiafoe, James Blake, Ferrer, Verdasco and low ranked players such as Rosol, Dustin Brown and Darcis - Primarily had success not because he was technically special and all-around, but because he abused extreme topspin as a lefty. This gave him an advantage against the tour. - Never a better player than Federer, but a complete mismatch that was able to abuse his extreme topspin to Federers backhand

Fake voice overs are VERY annoying.
Nadal is always a sore loser
Sore loser??? Why??? 🤔
Nadal Bad Tennis Player only defense
Alcaraz is already a more complete and talented player than Murray ever was. His US open is worth all of Murray’s 3 slam titles.
STFU....and Alcaraz just lost to an unranked player today.
Lol Murray beat defending champ Novak Djokovic in us open 2012. That was a 25 year old prime djokovic as well. Nice try
Lol right Murray beat multi-slam champion Djokovic to win two of his slam titles. Murray’s first slam final was at US open 2008. He lost to Federer in the final but arguably had a better run than Alcaraz’s US Open win. Murray beat Rafa who was world no. 1 and also beat wawrinka and Delpo. Alcaraz was lucky that Djokovic couldn’t play in the US, best players he beat were Sinner, Cilic and Ruud. The top 10/20 used to be stronger
Aizen sousuke Alcaraz beaten in 2 sets in first round againt an old Goffin at Astana... Wait the end of Alcarz's carreer before speaking
@@Divvy21 2012 was the ugliest US open final in history. The insane wind wasn’t letting either player hit the ball properly. Try again.
Murray in mode Killer 😲😱
Reason why Andy was one of the FAB4...but..where did that backhand go Andy???
Nadal totally demolished by Murray from the second set.
Rafa demolished him in h2h 17-7 ..even Djokovic or fed can't done that Murray in h2h
