Will be surprised if Medvedev doesn't win. He' a -180 favorite. Nadal will have the crowd which will help. Feel like Rafa needs to get up early to have a legit chance.
When tennis icons Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal meet Tuesday for the 59th time at 2:45 p.m. Eastern in the French Open quarterfinals. American fans will have only one over-the-air option to watch: the Tennis Channel, a cable network that’s available in 61 million homes via cable and satellite providers.
Tuesday’s match will not air on one of the networks owned by NBCUniversal, or Peacock, its streaming service. While NBC and Peacock will televise the men’s and women’s semifinals and finals this weekend, they only can offer a limited number of midweek matches under the terms of their contract with Roland Garros.
The bulk of the French Open matches — 80 percent — are aired in the United States by Tennis Channel under a deal reached in 2016 that runs through 2023. Tennis Channel does offer a streaming service called TC Plus, but it costs $109 annually, is available only in year-long subscriptions and does not include the main Tennis Channel feed, which can be accessed online only with a cable or satellite subscription. The Djokovic-Nadal match only will air on the main Tennis Channel feed, according to a schedule on the network’s website.
The Nadal and Joker match looking like one for the ages. They are 3 hours in, and still in third set.
Rafa won the first set and was up 3-0 in the 2nd set, when Joker stormed back to take the 2nd set.
Just went it looked like Rafa was cooked, he is now up 4-1 in the third set. Seems destined for 5 sets.
wish I could watch...
found out today a buddy got tickets a while ago and turned out to be for this match -- lucky draw!
Coco Gauff into the finals hell yeah
