People dejected with Rafa losing. Understandable. People happy for Verdasco winning. Understandable. People happy for Rafa losing. Why?

Nadal will retire knowing he was called a True Roadie by MTV. Still the greatest moment of his career. https://t.co/9hD04R3eOD

Hard to believe that Fernando Verdasco is #45 in the world. That Forehand was remarkable today #AusOpen

thinking: among nadal and venus losing, the match-fixing cloud, the injuries, we should request Hawkeye in hopes of playing a let on AO2016

Perhaps this loss will be good for Nadal - a long-needed change of coach and approach. He can't stay competitive by doing the same things.

Final winners count: Nadal - 37 Verdasco - 90 More than doubled up. #ausopen

Nadal has lost after leading two sets to one at consecutive majors (had not lost in that position since 2005).

The last three players to defeat Nadal at majors have an average ranking of No. 60.
