How many slam-winning years do you think Nadal will have left when he hits 14 slams?

Don't take on there stupid, it is only going to make you look bad. Just wait, a few more weeks...

You have to admit that Nadal is a truly special player. The guy has won Monte Carlo 8 straight times! That is seven straight title defenses.

He has won Barcelona 7 times, and won it every year he played since 05. Defending the title numerous times.

His FO legacy is just insane. Only ONE match lost in his reign there, and has defended the title four times successfully.

Multiple title defenses in Rome....

Yet....

He has failed to defend a single title off of clay. From one extreme, where his records are legendry and will be told about for a long time, to the eggs he has laid in non clay title defenses in such a star studded career. Truly a one of a kind player.

Nadal was gone physically, early in 2009. And Del Potro almost lost that match. It wasn't a thrashing, it was a match Nadal had control over for 80%.

You mean when he was down a set and and a break before Del Potro almost choked the match away?

Nadal hasnt lost to a player not named Novak in a slam for over a year. He has run into Federer, Murray, Del Potro, the people you are hyping to take him out, and sent them all packing each and everytime on a variety of surfaces. I am afraid you are setting yourself up for dissapointment if you are counting on Nadal not making slam finals.

Federer btw is 2-3 vs Nadal at non clay slams, not 2-2. He hasnt beaten him in a non clay slam (or any slam) since July 2007 where PRIME Federer eked out an excrutiatingly close 5 setter vs Nadal on grass, despite by his own admission being dominated off the ground all match long. That Federer would destroy the Federer of Wimbledon 2010 and handily beat the Federer of Wimbledon 2011, and barely escaped a younger Nadal. Maybe cc will be right though, and Federer maybe will be stronger on grass than in years. He is after all winning more Masters type events than he did in a long time, and hasnt played a truly bad Berdych like slam match in over a year now which are encouraging signs for him, so who knows, but as things stand now....

It's not like Nadal's that much better on grass courts now compared to 2007. That 2007 Wimbledon final was one of the best matches Nadal has ever played on the surface.

It doesn't really matter. Fed will probably win at least 1 slam this year. I could see him winning a couple more after that as well. No chance in hell Rafa catches Fed.

You'd better be right on all counts.

Perhaps, but Federer is alot worse now so his chances vs Nadal at Wimbledon today are extremely small barring much improved form.

 

[DjokovicForTheWin]

Unless Donald Young improves his form dramatically he will have no chance against Nadal at Wimbledon. I know that isn't obvious so I had to make it clear.
