Federer and Nadal's record in finals
 

Federer is 76-32 in singles finals (70.37%) in his career.
Federer has lost to the following players at least twice in finals: Nadal (12), Nalbandian (2), Djokovic (3), and Murray (2).

After Shanghai 2010, Federer had lost 6 out of his 8 previous finals. Since Shanghai 2010, Federer has gone 15-4 in finals.

Since 2005, Federer has lost 5 finals to players not in The Big Four.


Nadal is 50-21 in singles finals (70.42%) in his career.
Nadal has lost to the following players at least twice in finals: Federer (6), Davydenko (3), Murray (2), and Djokovic (7)

After Tokyo 2010, Nadal had won 43-55 of his previous finals. Since Tokyo 2010, Nadal has gone 7-9 in finals.

Since 2005, Nadal has lost 5 finals to players not in The Big Four.

Federer definitely has picked up the pace in finals the last 2 years.

20 slams and 90 titles is a big possibility for Maestro!

It's awkward how the 7 from Djokovic were all from 2011+2012.

Nadal is the spanner in Federer's wheel.
Djokovic in Nadal's.
Rock paper we know already :)

Except Nadal beat Djokovic in 3 big clay finals in a row this spring. Back to pwnage.

Man what killer stats, a big, serious thanks man.

Hang on, 7 of those losses were to Djokovic when Djokovic had the voodoo spell on Nadal.

And......?

I wonder what Federer's record is when he plays Rafa in finals. Both overall and in slams, its bound to be disgraceful.

Rafa leads Djokovic 19-14.
Rafa leads Djokovic 6-3 at the slams (and Djokovic only has a positive h2h at the AO).

Rafa has won their last 3 encounters (including their last slam encounter).

Rafa definitely owns Djokovic, no question about it.

In slam finals, Nadal leads 6-2. If you include all their finals, Nadal leads 13-6 (so Nadal leads 7-4 in the non-slam tournament finals). Yep, disgraceful.

If only Federer could still win slam semis regularly :(

He's still got the QF streak going, not to mention the 4R streak, 3R streak, 2R streak and 1R streak. :oops:

Enjoying a conversation with yourself NSK??

Yeah, where are you going with this mate? :)

That those 7 losses were not a typical period of Nadal's career.

Enjoying sending a message to a user that has been banned for quite a long time now?

But he still lost them.

Djokovic beat Nadal 7 times in a row in a timespan lasting less than a year. So he dominated Nadal for a very short period of time. But it doesn't matter; Nadal still leads 6-3 in slams and 19-14 overall, one win away from tying the Sampras-Agassi H2H, and at AO 2013 he has the golden opportunity to beat Djokovic at all four slams and extend his dominance over Djokovic.

Advantage Nadal.

Whereas Federer has been dominated by Nadal for his entire career, not just for a short period.

By the way, I hope Federer is pointing to the exit in that avatar, since that's the way he's heading. Although, personally, I don't want Federer to retire, since I'd like Nadal to finish up his career having beaten Federer in the final of all four slams, and have at least a 4-0 hard-court slam H2H lead, including 4-2 at Wimbledon (if Federer goes deep at Wimbledon, which is unlikely) and 2-0 at the US Open. One more win at Roland Garros would be nice too, making it a career bagel (6-0).
