Just my opinion, and maybe the future will prove me highly wrong (as it does on continual occasion), but I think Roger will win the US and Aussie Opens coming up. I think though, that Rafa will get him at the French in 08. There are so many rising stars though (Gasquet, Brdych, Murray, Djokovic, Rafa, Mahut, Baghdatis, and many spoilers) that come Wimbledon 08, Roger is going to have to fight tooth and nail. I have a suspicion that his supremecy of the sport will come to an end at the AO in 08.
The surface of Wimbledon will be slower than this year. The sun will be out and continual play in the last week will not allow for tired players to enter the quarters and semis.
As well, Rafa stunned the tennis world Sunday. He did not beat Roger--but he stunned him. He gave him a couple punches that put Roger in a spot he has not been in during a final in almost half a decade. By doing so, he showed the other young guns that the master is not invincible. Roger is not without flaw and weaknesses. He is finally human--although still a champion.
I have to say, 12 and 13 will come so soon to Roger and with relative ease compared to Wimbledon this year. But come the French in 08, his domination of the tennis world will be not only challenged by Rafa--but others as well.
Your thoughts????
