Set to be similar to golf's Ryder Cup. "The men’s team event, set to start in 2017, will match the best players from Europe against the best from the rest of the world over three days of competition in singles and doubles. Each team is to have six players: four who have qualified through the...

Rafa may not be the most versatile tennis player ever (which in itself is a bit of a laugh, since he did manage to win Slams on 3 surfaces in a calendar year), but if Earth had to challenge aliens at a sport, we would choose Rafa Nadal on clay in a best of 5 match. Discuss.

Few fantastic matches have had as poor a fifth set like the Nadal vs Federer final at the Australian Open in 2009. And few brilliant matches before it, have had four such amazing sets prior to the fifth. To my recollection, I haven't seen a match holding the same quality during the four first...

For your enjoyment :) Especially the Rafa fans of course. That first set was one of the best this season.

Which is your favourite - new or old?

Think about it: Djokovic has just fired his entire team (except guru Pepe) and we have no idea how that will turn out, even though many on this board believe that his poor form so far in 2017 will continue. It's very unclear in what shape Djokovic will come into RG. Murray hasn't been playing...

Does he? What do you think? Nadal is an all-time baseliner and Federer seemed to outclass him in IW and be at least even with him in Miami. Granted, we've only seen tennis on HC so far this season. We know that Federer gains so much from his outstanding serve and that he uses his skills at...

When we discuss the greatest matches of all time it's obviously tough to reach any form of consensus. How important is the drama? The circumstances? The level of play? The importance for tennis as a sport? Some might say that the quality is the most important aspect, while others tend to lean...

Had this type of thread for Fedr fans earlier, so now it's time for Rafa!

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.

Might seem a bit over the edge to have an appreciation thread for a single shot of a single player, but let's face it, there are few shots in the history of tennis - if any - that is as breathtaking and spectacular as Rafael Nadal's banana shot. I decided to collect 50 of his best ones in the...

Is it Rafael Nadal... Novak Djokovic... Roger Federer... Or Bernard Tomic? Vote and discuss!

Now the question turns to the Nole fans in this forum. Which of Djokovic's losses was the toughest and most heartbreaking? Discuss and vote!

Other rivalries have had more matches and the outcome have historically been more unpredictable. But no other rivalry in the history of tennis has appealed to the sports world in the same way as when Federer and Nadal step out on the court to face each other. People who usually doesn't follow...
