RG13 will be Nadal's last slam final win.

[-RF-]

He will give it everything at RG13, beating Novak in an epic W08 like 5 setter. After that he won't win any more slams, he's done.

nice random guess you got there

[Clarky21]

He probably won't even be playing then so he wouldn't win it anyway.

Since when does Nadal need to give everything at Roland Garros? He only dropped one set this year (and that set was only made possible because of the rain) lol.

He is random in general, just ignore him.

As much as it is a guess, it still sounds like an educated guess for me... With the way things are going, this is more likely to happen.

[monfed]

Umm I'd prefer if RG 2012 is his last slam win,actually.

[DRII]

whatever excusefed...

[Rock Strongo]

Is this a thread to bring *** back from the dead?

[Clarky21]

He's already been resurrected in post #4.

[Cesc Fabregas]

Nadal will win 2 slams next year.

RG 2005 being his last slam would be even better... or no slam at all.

[kishnabe]

I think he has a lot more...I don't like it. He is too good to end with just 12 majors at such a young age.

Has at least 3 more years I think......so 3 more majors or more.

Who would win a match at the 2013 Australian Open between Nadal and Federer? If Nadal's final slam title is RG2013 then surely Federer would beat him at the AO, no?

[Sentinel]

According to my scientific calculations, RG 2015 could be his last (Jupiter will be in his 5th house along with Mercury). 2013 is too early. Anyway, this is all too speculative -- need to wait till he comes back and see what shapes his knees are in.

So what you're actually saying is that Nadal won't be part of the equation in 2014? I have to disagree, he'll definitely still be in his prime when he's 29-30, in 2014 he'll barely be 28 (so still plenty of prime years left).

Part of which equation ? JV's equation ? The one Federer is no longer a part of ?

Rafa's prime will last forever, unfortunately his knees and his mind (read: burnout) won't. I'd like to be proven wrong, but I don't see him playing when he's 29/30.

You know that RF is just trolling you right ?

It must be blowing the Federer fans minds that Nadal may end up being a better slam player at age 30 than Federer is/was. Truth is, Nadal is so great at Roland Garros that it will take a long time for him to leave the scene. Federer was never as dominant at any of the other slams.

lol, there is literally zero chance of Nadal being a better slam player at age 30 than Fed. Heck, he might not even play at 30.
