To be fair to both players, we should count the matches that were played on their best surfaces, clay for Nadal and grass for Federer. Nadal is the king of clay and Federer is the king of grass.

Nadal leads 13-2 (86.66%) on clay while Federer leads 2-1 (66.66%) on grass. Overall, Nadal leads the head to head 14-4 (77.77%) vs Federer. This is the most objective Fedal H2H. Most objective fans would agree.

No, not again.... Give it a break, that horse is dead, yet stamped, beaten, squished and its starting to rot.

The two are two ATGs and to each fan his own. One doesn't need a proof to call his player the great.

You can also say Nadal totally dominates clay, but Federer leads grass and HC. So surface wise: Fed leads 2-1.

To be fair to the players; Let's remove clay and grass: Federer leads 11-9.

Nadal has won 22 of his 30 Masters on clay. There is no Masters on grass, so Federer has won 23 masters outside his favourite surface. Nadal 8 :eek:

Nadal's clay prowess has clearly affected this rivalry, that's objective to say.

It's objective to say: Had Federer been worse on clay, his rivalry against Nadal would have been a lot better.

I think all tennis fans would agree :)

Bull Z and Dark Knight at least had some trolling skills . The VB clan these days just sucks
TDK sucked dude.

6-3, 6-1, 6-0 was pretty funny sometimes though - just because of how over the top and ridiculous some of his posts were.

Backspin isn't a troll though IMO - he can be a decent poster; just likes to stir the pot a little.

Suppose there were 2 slams on clay instead of hard courts, how many slams would Nadal have then?

We got the memo: Federer lost way too many slam matches to Nadal in the past, matches he never should have lost(off clay.) But it's now 2017 and in 2017, Nadal was clueless against Federer.

If Federer wins one more major title, he'll be out of digits on which to count them. :(

Federer plays the nicest style, but Nadal wins the matches. 2017 is too little too late.
It may happen in all levels.
The guy in the club with the awful strokes beating the virtuosos.
It’s a cruel world.
