The end of the match might feel bad as Nadal was clearly hampered by something, but nothing should take away from McDonald that he earned this. He was up a set and a break and completely outplaying Rafa even before whatever happened to Nadal's hip.

Nadal never in his life has lost a match without somehow suffering an injury towards the end

Nadal resembling a McDonald's ice cream machine by the end there.

Doubled over in the second. Hampered his ability to hit backhands.

Classy to finish the match out though. Speedy recovery for the clay season if the Sunshine double is too soon.

Its an Ohio State chant, spelling out O-H-I-O. When someone says O-H... you're supposed to respond I-O! The commenter is assumingly referring to the above commenters Ohio State flair.

Its kind of a cool chant but its also a little out of place here, as nothing in the article is about OSU. Combined with Ohio State having a lot of rivals, thus the downvotes

Thanks. I was thinking it had something to do with Rafa or tennis in general. Was way off. Haha

Haha nope… u/-MrWrightt- explained it perfectly. OP has an Ohio state flair- so me being a buckeye fan as well, I put up that comment with the “O H”.
