Nadal deserves recognition for Wimbledon showing

[Rodditha]

For clarification... I'm not trying to dispute his #2-3 on grass like I said people here have been trying to argue that he is GREAT on grass. If you read my previous post they all are arguments of why hes not great on grass. And you can't be great with 0 titles, hell you can't even be great with 1 wimby title.

I totally agree with you krz. Nadal can't be great on grass with no titles on that surface.

Well, that fact is that grass court tennis is NOT as estranged as 90's.

Don't be surprised if the next young phenoms (like Djokovic, Gasquet)
reach finals of both French Open and Wimbledon( and other slams...).

Federer's all surface excellence won't look as special as now as years
go by.

I've been saying the same thing since 3-4 years ago. I made a bet
with "federerhogenbandfan", 1 years and 3 months ago on Nadal's
winning Wimbledon. I used the same argument that time. Let's see
how tennis world changes in 2-3 years....

Reaching 4 GS and winning 3 of them doesn't look special? What does the guy have to do?

Stats for the only huge grass tournament each year:

Roddicks:

2006= 32nd
2007= 8th

average position 2006/2007 20th

Nadal 2006= 2nd
Nadal 2007= 2nd

average position 2006/2007 = 2nd

2nd> 20th.


nadal is easily the 2nd best grasscourter. Roddick may be better in 2004 but not in 2006/7

Tipical argument of a Nadal groupie. No serious arguments. Nadal's stats and results on grass are way lower than Roddick's, he isn't number 2 on grass.
