fedal

I got Nadal in a close 4, Alcaraz in 5 on grass and hard court

I don't know why do I feel that Fedal fans are anathema to me, I just don't understand why someone can like both Federer and Nadal; for me, it's like being a Real Madrid and FC Barcelona fan, it doesn't make sense. This also applies to Fedkovic and Nadalovic fans, you just cannot like two big...

Recently (Aug. 2023), at a Uniqlo event in New York, a kid asked Roger: “What is your relationship with Rafa? ” and here's Roger's answer ...

On 24 May, Federer launched a Q&A session on Twitter in which he mentioned Rafa Nadal at least five times. Here's the funny and touching responses from Federer: Q：Do you miss playing Rafa?? A：yes and no Q：Your favorite match against @RafaelNadal ? A：RG 2008. Those 4 games were awesome...

I don't think any of us realistically thought that this was going to be their last professional match against each other; the way both of them had rejuvenated themselves after the disappointment of last few months of 2018 was certainly a good omen. After their meeting at French open a few weeks...

As we know they have never met at the Flushing Meadows and probably will never meet there in the future. 2008 - 2 sets away :mad: Federer was already waiting in the final but Nadal lost his SF to Murray 1-3 2009 - 3 sets away :( Nadal lost the SF to Del Potro 0-3 Federer advanced to the final...

Not sure if these were posted before - a couple of snippets from his Credit Suisse interview about the AO22 final He watched the ending and got emotional too: Doesn't mind record being broken:

This was inspired by the thread for Djokodal. While the Fedal rivalry is better known for its five-setters, there are also some underrated three-set gems. Which one is your favorite of them all? EDIT: I guess this could include straight-set Slam matches but I don't see how anyone would consider...

So Djokovic could possibly equal Federer's slam tally in a few years (still a big if), but who will be the biggest obstacle facing him in the year 2021 and beyond? I think Felix will most likely be the biggest obstacle for Djokovic once he gets into the top 10. IF there is someone I left out...

Djokovic's strategy coach makes some good points and it's interesting to see how he works using previous matches as a model. He bases his points on Nadal and Federer's Wimbledon run this year and last year. For Djokovic he implies that not a lot has changed since 2015...

I think the chances are too low. Last year, 3 of their 4 meetings were in the first half of the season (AO17 final, IW17 R4, Mia17 final) and the 4th was in october, Sha17 final. This year, first half has gone without a fedal match. Nadal skipped almost full HC season of the 1st quarter of the...

Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal agree shock link-up to play Wimbledon DOUBLES ROGER FEDERER and Rafael Nadal have agreed a shock deal to play together in the Wimbledon doubles this year. By Jack Wilson Federer Nadal double act triumph in The Laver Cup The fierce rivals have won 36 Grand...

Below is my analysis of Nadal’s questionable draw. My hypothesis is that the draw was rigged by the organizers of the Australian Open to increase the chance of Nadal facing #17 Kyrgios (an Australian) in the semifinals, then Federer in the final. Federer, Del Potro, Djokovic and Wawrinka are...

Nadal's historic La Decima at Roland Garros. Roger F winning record 8th Wimbledon. Oldest year end number 1 of the Open Era. Longevity. The "No Excuses" Grand Slam final won by F. "Claydal" winning his third US Open clay court title. Dimitrov peaks on a tennis court to win the...

If they like each other and think each other awesome - why would we disagree with either of them? Sure, debate is fun, but I call for respect all around and no more trolly-trash. CAUSE LOOK:

Straight up fight between Fedal. Federer does far better than Nadal in this part of the season usually, but will his fitness play a role this time? It will be even more difficult if Nadal manages to win the USO. Fed has announced that he intends to play a full schedule- so 2 more Masters, Basel...

Personally I choose the Masters 2011 RR match because it was a strong Nadal and a semideclined Federer without the better and bigger BH with Ljubicic.
