I'm a fan of both and I think we are lucky to have seen these two guys play. I think for both, the recent grand slams are just bonuses, they made history many years ago and done what they had to do to be regarded as the two greatest a while ago in my opinion.
However listening to the media and everything it seems like Federer's 8th Wimbledon is being praised more than Nadal's 10th. Why is that? Is it simply because the world favors Federer? Wimbledon being the biggest tournament?
I think Nadal's 10th French Open is more impressive. That record may never get beaten. Clay is the most physically grueling surface, almost every point has to be fought for, there are no free points and for Nadal to have won the thing 10 times, in an era where we have the greatest set of baseliners of all time - I think is amazing.
Federer's 8th is obviously amazing, and puts him beyond anyone on grass ever but for me Nadals 10th is more so.
What do you think?
