12.2m fans for Roger on Facebook vs. 11.4 for Rafaello. Yet according to you, they're both at roughly 12 million? I finally understand why you think Nadal is the GOAT. You just round both of their slam tallies to around a dozen.

You do realize a lot of those Twitter followers are fake accounts, right?

They pull a lot of tricks in order to create more social buzz around celebrities and sports stars. 57% of Kardashian's Twitter followers are fake. 79% of Shakira's followers are also fake. Britney Spearks, Oprah Winfrey and Rihanna roughly have a list of followers of which 75%+ are fake and inactive accounts.

Rafael Nadal is number 4 in the world, and has not held the top ranking since middle of 2011. He also is second best in every department of tennis except this dirty brown crap that people say is a legitimate surface.

OP yet again fails to realise that Federer does NOT have a Twitter account. A bit too desperate at trolling I guess?

Federer is not on Twitter, if he were he'd have 7 million followers easily.

I imagine soon enough Nadal will be back and making tweets from his phone between points

"Vamos! no? Just passed Roger again. Now watch him blow a 5-2 lead"

"Just made a challenge but the umpire no see, no?"

"Where shall I serve this time?"

<from toni's twitter> "Serve out wide Rafa"

possibilities are endless.

If Fed did this some gems could be

"SHUT UP!!"

"Why the character limit? I could write my Autobiog in the time it takes nads/nole to serve"

Delpo could tweet

"Murray... him and his mother always the same"

Murray replies with "What did you say about my mum?"

They are not!

I follow him on Twitter.

It is the best place to receive cooking recipes, advice at how to clear stains from linen and at any time there is a course at applied physics going ( Nadal Freak is the lecturer )
