Probably not.

Nadal is oviously dominant on the slower surfaces of FO and AO.

On the faster surfaces - well, no h2h at USO, and Nadal is 1-2 at Wimby.

Closest we have to indoor GS is WTF, and Nadal has fared poorly there. Partly because of the surface, and partly because of it being scheduled at the end of the year.

For the sake of argument, let's say AO and WTF were switched around in terms of schedule, and in terms of slam status. How would Nadal do against Fed at the beginning of the year on WTF courts with it having slam status? Well, I think he would do better than his record at WTF suggests, but Federer would still have the edge. Nadal would certainly not "dominate".

As much butthurt as Federer is over Nadal. With the roof closed at Wimbledon Fed would have a good chance to beat Nadull. With the roof open all bets are off.

That would not change because Nads would never give Feds the chance to change it by "loosing" early... Ala USO

last time i checked rosol has no slams, or considered to be an all time great, sometimes you need to think a little lol

[augustobt]

How about Rosol slam record of 1-0?

All of those were played outside. There's nothing to indicate that Nadal would beat Federer at an indoor slam, since he's 0-4 against Federer indoors and has only won a single set.

ZeroSkid is a pathetic poster, as NadalWon. Nothing to add in any debate. Hasn't any kind of knowledge about the sport, just trying to troll the "*******s" with stupid arguments.

Ridiculous.

Oh, so you're saying that the number of Slams is more important than H2H in determining who's better?

Thanks for letting us know.

Exactly...

MAYBE Nadal would reach the Final once in a banner year. Otherwise he'd be in danger of losing where from the Semis and before.

So when Fed doesn't have to face Rafa in the final he's a HUGE favorite

Yes, and I was there. Kind of felt sorry for him.

And why does that matter? By your logic, doesn't that make Nadal a sore winner? Nothing worse in sports.
