Nadal only has a 40% chance of winning Roland Garros? More like 90%.

Maybe a 40% chance of not dropping a set at Roland Garros.

Reminds me of Soderling at 2009 RG. Nadal beat Soderling in straight sets at 2010 RG (final) and 2011 RG.

Nadal was 11-2 vs top 10 players in 2012.

In 2012....

Nadal didn't drop a set at Monte Carlo, Barcelona, Rome.

Nadal only dropped one set at Roland Garros.

Nadal was EXTREMELY close to winning the Australian Open.

Federer and Murray didn't play a great Wimbledon.

Djokovic and Murray didn't play a great US Open.
He finished this year. as it is not sad.
injury progresses.
total 0 Grands

lol btw unless he had something of rafa like a hair or something that belongs to him, he cannot do voodoo.. so you missed one important step of doing voodoo not that i know much of it but you get it right. Voodoo always sounds scary

on topic, i think rafa can win 3 slams if he is healthy his main competition is Nole and most of '12 in slams atleast, nole 1.5 showed up. so fair chance.

Who's to say Monfed doesn't have something that belongs to Nadal? I think he would go to the ends of the earth if he could to ruin Nadal's career. He hates him with a passion,you know.

Is it for trolling?
Why stop at 3? Why not all 4 altogether? How about the next 4 GS in 2014 as well?
No Rosol? Is he the one who will sink the Spanish Armada once again if he ever faces Rafa? I can smell some fear in your words there.

That's not what he said. He said Rafa had a 40% chance of winning only 1 slam .

Rafa could be 99.9% to win RG and still be 40% to win exactly one slam.

Wow, aren't you a terrible person. I see him winning at least 12 slams in 2013.

I would laugh if this thread ends up right, especialy given the fail poster who started it (as an obvious attempt of a jinx thread which only proves his haters are in fact still worried about Nadal).

I think he'll win -1 to -2 slams

I think this is the year they are on a witch hunt for doping (read: lance armstrong)

and Nadal is going to lose a few titles... may have to retire too.

I'm looking to '13 as being the year the shakes up the history of tennis forever.

Also it will be interesting to see if they go ahead and award those slams to Federer or just leave it as "title unclaimed"

Clay court M1K wins, possible RG
Grass Court Season, nil or Queenland
Hard Court(HC)-we'll see at AO
The Big Question is his health endurance...

Wow Let's watch his first matches back in competition before predicting slam titles please. This is very premature imo. OK, RG is not much of a high risk bet but I'd rather wait a bit to talk about the rest.

Cool

Janowicz, not Rosol, will play the role of the matador vs The Bull. La rodilla del Toro will fall apart on Court Chartier fruitlessly chasing the exquisite dropshot artistry of the Polish Cannon. At a changeover in the third set, the vanquished Mallorcan will wave his swoosh bandana and do his best Roberto Duran imitation...no mas, por favor, no mas!

You read it here first, six full months before this reality occurs!
