No,what I meant is that we won't ever know if Djokovic would have beaten Federer at the FO and vice versa so it's pointless to discuss.
My apologies. I misunderstood.

Hey serb, keep thinking Djoker wil win wimbledon.I would love to see a matchup between Fed and Djoker on grass, to see if he can really beat the man.
Barely? Wow, I dont think we were watching the same match. I didnt see Djokovic lose a set 6-1, let alone 6-0, and get completely and utterly destroyed like what Nadal did to Federer.
I have no doubt Djokovic would have played a much better game against Nadal than what Federer did today.
Roger seems to be ok with his play. He gave credit to Rafa's game more than blame his own in his interview with McEnroe.

He did play Nadal like umm 2 days ago. Djokovic may have played better in the final set compared to Roger, but it was still a straight sets victory for Rafa.

don't waste your energy arguing just present the facts:Barely? Wow, I dont think we were watching the same match. I didnt see Djokovic lose a set 6-1, let alone 6-0, and get completely and utterly destroyed like what Nadal did to Federer.

Yes, he gave all due credit to Nadal. But of course he thinks there's things he could have done better (like that 1st set in particular, it set tone for the whole match).
That said, he could have played his absolute best today, better than at Rome in '06, and he would have lost, possibly still in straights. Nadal just played absolutely great. He was completely consistent. The games Federer won, he essentially had to play perfect points to do it.
Nadal just played at the top of his game today from absolute start to finish. His errors in each set were in the single-digits, right? He was just automatic out there.

Djoko could have, would have. It's all speculation. Fact is: Roger beat Djoko on clay.
Until Djoko actually beats Nadal and Federer on clay, Djoko is still behind Nadal and Fed on that surface.
It's definitely the beginning of the end for Federer. It's truly annoying the fact that a guy who's only managed to win one tournament (not even a Masters Series one) since the beginning of the year holds still the number one place in the ranking list after half the year now passed.
Just because Djoker wants it doesnt he mean he could beat the man on grass.Djoker has had results but nothing more.He is still an unknown in grass.

If he doesn't win Wimby and the US Open I can assure you he won't finish #1 in the end.
I really doubt rafa will train with Roger. even though they are friends, that just does not happen in pro tennis. and roger knows that.
Sweep what under the rug, that he lost to possibly the greatest clay-courter ever? That's hardly something to be ashamed of.
12 GS and still going. He got out of his slump during the clay-court season -- his worst surface -- and is moving well. He'll be fine at Wimbledon. It's just Nadal is too good on clay.
Yeah,I still think he has a good chance at Wimbledon and USO although most people seem to disagree with that.
Man, seeing the Wimbledon highlight. Horrible. The baseline is brown, it looks like dirt. The net area is as green as can be. Just awful what they've done to wimbledon.
with all due respect to nadal, who's a great champion and master of clay, he'll need to win one other slam to be no.1. he can win the french each year for the rest of his life but if someone else wins two slams, he can't be no.1.
What the hell happened. I was watching in the second set, and it was tied 2-2. The blatherers were saying Fed has raised his game and now we were in for a really tight match.
I went off to eat breakfast and came back, and it's over
What the heck? 6-1, 6-3, 6-0????
So much for Fed being a GOAT.

Very disappointing performance by Roger. Waving the white flag like that in the 3rd set was a shame. That was not a champion and world #1's to do. On top of that, it was in front of many former tennis greats. I think he lost more than a match today.
I'm still shocked at this meltdown. Nadal was absolutely marvelous but tones of UE's by Roger too. I can't believe how many missed easy volleys and shanks Fed committed today. Is it lack of concentration? It's baffling.
