If Nadal wins:

he becomes the first man to beat another man in 9 grand slam matches.
he joins Federer as the only men to reach at least three finals at all four grand slams (Federer, of course, has reached at least five finals at all four grand slams)

If Federer wins:
his fans can say off clay, the head to head in grand slams is 3-3
he will have reached 6 finals at three different grand slams (no other man has even reached 5 finals at three different grand slams)
Do you think Federer would consider it his greatest non-Grand Slam final win ever?

No one cares about h2h , except Nadal fans.

I think the greatest non slam final was 2011 FO when Novak was unbeatable and had a 7-0 streak against Nadal.

But , if he wins AO, it will be the greatest route to victory , considering Fed is 32.5

How much do you think they bet on this match?

"Hey, Roger, ready to eat dirt again tomorrow?"
"That's it! Rafa, I'm beating you, once and for all!"
"Haha good joke!"
Fed glares at Rafa.
"Oh, you were serious. You do realize that's not gonna happen, right?"
"Wanna bet?"
"Sure. I win, I get all your Wimbledon trophies."
"But, but, but--I'll give you my first born son instead, how bout that?"
"I thought you were gonna win. Guess you see reality now that you know the stakes?"
"No, I'll win. I'll triple bagel you!"
"Really? Good luck. Tell ya what. If you win, I'll let you win the next Roland Garros."
"You're on!"
