Slam winners for 2011

I think Roger is going to try his best to get Wimbledon.He absolutely loves it and everytime someone asks him his goals for a particular year he says Wimbledon.Even this year he said his biggest disappointment was at Wimbledon.
I'm not sure he'll get it but I do think he'll give everything he can to win it.
Of course he's love to win any slam but Wimbledon has a special meaning for him.Would be nice to see him lift that beautiful trophy atleast one more time :)

Other than that-well,Nadal is virtually a lock for RG unless someone REALLY plays out of his skin and pushes him incredibly hard in which case it might get a little hard-not likely to happen.
He could win both AO and Wimb.
USO-I don't know.I know I'd like to see Murray win a slam but with the way things are going....
I'd have loved to see more of DP but his fitness is a HUGE question mark.

Some of you are saying that Nadal will be slamless next year, surprising. Do you really believe that, or are you just taking the ****?
 
If Nadal is healthy he will win atleast 2 slams. In 2008 and 2010 he was healthy so he won the most slams, in 06, 07 and 09 he was injured which denied him slams.

maybe you did not know this but it is very obvious what will happen next year unlike some jokers who say that amazing rafa will never win a non clay court gs then say he will never be number one then say he will never win a hard court slam then say he will never win the us open then say he will never win japan, i will predict the future and the future is this:

AO: Rafael
FO: Nadal
WO: Parera
USO: Goat

now all my good friend nadal_freak where ever he is just have to say vamos and it will happen but i must also say: vamos!

That's a "possability".

Careful, man. He will say you are stalking him. :)

Seriously though, it looks like most of his other IDs have been banned. So, as long as he just stays with Trillus as his only ID, I've got no problem. It is just tiresome talking to a many-headed sockpuppet.

Right now I've got to make Rafa favourite for all 4 in 2011.

Then again, I said Roger would win all four after he pumped Murray at the AO in 2010! I also think Murray will win a slam one day.

Probably not a good idea to listen to me then, going by my track record.

IMO, anyone who "doesn't mind losing 8 slam finals" to one of his man rivals on tour doesn't deserver to win any slam.

what do you mean he doesn't mind?
its true his record vs federer is rather pathetic, but he's an awfully good player to end up only winning one slam.

1992 ... perhaps you missed Roddick's comment after losing the 2006 U.S Open final to Federer. He said he wouldn't mind losing 8 slam finals to Federer. A comment that prompted his own coach at the time, Connors, to call it bullshi*t! Of course, Connors' comment was very mild compared to what I thought of the confidence-lacking one-dimensional American tennis player!

Contrast his attitude to Nadal's who, when asked if he could win Wimbledon, said in a matter-of-fact tone, why not! And this was at a time when Federer was absolute king there and yet Nadal had no doubt he was going to win it very soon. And there, dear 1992, is the difference between one who thinks like a champion and therefore rightfully has 9 slams at a mere 24 years of age and another who has the attitude of a loser and therefore, not surprisingly, is a one slam wonder approachng the end of his career!

I'll be going mainly for Novak and Delpo for slams in 2011 (rafa's actually my favourite player above those two but i'm kind of sick of him winning everything)

Going for A-Rod as well but that doesnt look like happening anytime soon

Well, if MacGyver would break a string. he'd just restring it during the changeover using the hair from a carefully selected person in the crowd. MacGruber on the other hand, would blow up everything.

^^ okay, i'll bear in mind for the future that hating something means not being good at it :)

I've predicted Nadal for all 4.

You're just as hard to understand as I am, apparently. Why did you ask me this, then turn around and post this? Just curious.

^^ Either i am weird, or i can't understand myself. Or whatever.

Peace.

I just think Fed has a better chance than Murray to win any slam. However, the most chances are with Nadal.
