yes, I know, I am captain obvious. But watching just today's final, sure we can say that Fed could have played better. But even if he had played better today, I think it would still be straight sets for Nadal, perhaps it would be just closer, but still inevitable. I really think Nadal can win another 4 French open in a row. Just think about that for a second. Absolutely unheard of, yet achievable in his standards. I love Fed as much as one fan can admire a player, but we just have to be realistic. In order for Fed to beat Nadal, Fed needs to be at A+ level, and Nadal has to drop significantly, to a B-, possibly C+, and even then, I think that will only create a victory for Fed for a full 5 sets worth of tennis. Nadal is a clay beast, and I just don't see anyone challenge him in the near future, no one is even close, and even if someone is somewhat closer, I don't see someone pushing him to 5 sets, maybe 4, and that is how dominant he is on clay.
