I am not saying 1-set challengers, but the whole match?
And yes, even if Thiem has showed up this time, 1 challenger in 6 matches...c'mon
Let's see tomorrow. I give it 60/40 advantage to Nadal, however, if 2015 Wawrinka shows up, Adios LaDecima.
Yeah, Fed secured his legacy aged 35. If he had retired before now, Nadal would've overtaken him. Now Federer has a good chance at #19 with Wimbledon and US Open around the corner. I don't think he will lose again until the US Open semis.
Obviously, Wawrinka that showed up was no better than Thiem in the semis or the way Djokovic would have gotten spanked if he got to Nadal...
Wawrinka has not lost the GS final up till now. I expected a better showing this time.
Great RG for Nadal, terrible quality tournament overall...

Actually you're wrong. Who cares if Nadal won Wimbledon back in 2010. He hasn't won since and has been a non-factor in the last 5 years. Those are the data which cannot be denied.
But if you want to predictions you look at history. In recent history Nadal has been a complete non-factor at Wimbledon since 2012. Ask Rosol, Darcis, Kyrgios. By the way in many of those years he won the FO (in dominant fashion at that) and then disappeared at Wimbledon. Those are the data which cannot be denied.
Nadal won RG in 2012, 2013, and 2014, but lost in the 2R, 1R, and 4R of Wimbledon. If Nadal wins RG this year, his chances at Wimbledon are the same as usual.
