This is another example of how Nadal's game is vastly underrated, Rafa is already considered the best claycourt player of all time -- at age 22. He holds a number of records and if he stays...

It wasn't much more than two years ago that folks here were predicting Rafa would have a Chang-like career or, at best, be on par with Muster. Now, many are saying he's the greatest player ever on...

Rafa is the best right now. But after Fed's dominance for so many years, I think no one is ready to count him out.

This is the way it was with Fed for a number years. Clay was the one time when you thought you might see a different winner.

I'm the original Nadal fan. And my admiration for him -- both on and off the court -- keeps growing. I always knew he'd be a very good player, but he keeps exceeding expectations.
