Had the worst timing of the big 3, with his prime overlapping Federer's prime AND Djokovic's prime. And yet still finished 21-11 against the two of them in Grand Slam matches.

If Federer had been born 5 years earlier or Djokovic had been born 5 years later, Nadal might have won 30 titles.

Save for the fact that Medvedev suffered generational head loss you have to marvel at what Rafa pulled off here. Just brilliant. :mjcry:
