Semi-Pro
Countless tennis fans emphasise how incredibly dominant Nadal has been on clay, particularly at Roland Garros, and he is unequivocally the greatest clay courter of all time.
At the same time, many tennis fans say that peak Djokovic stands no chance against peak Federer on grass, and they use this power-scaling method which implies that because post-prime Federer gave prime Djokovic very close matches at Wimbledon, and peak pre-2011 Federer is "significantly" better than the Federer that Djokovic faced at Wimbledon, that automatically means that 2003-2009 Federer would straight set Djokovic on grass with ease.
But then at the same time, those fans claim that Federer on grass is nowhere near as dominant as Nadal on clay, and apprently, peak Djokovic did pose major challenges to peak Nadal on clay on several occasions, even though clay is by far Djokovic's worst surface.
So which outcome seems more likely, peak Federer on grass losing to peak Djokovic or peak Nadal on clay losing to peak Djokovic?
