We all know that Federer was #1 for 237 consecutive weeks from 2/2/04 to 8/17/08 before his losing his place to Nadal.
I think many, including myself, expected Nadal to dominate the sport like Federer had.
In the 237 weeks that followed from Nadal first reaching #1, 8/18/08 to 3/4/13. Nadal was #1 for 102 total weeks.
Do you think Nadal had tougher competition during that time? Or why wasn't he able to be #1 for longer?
