Most likely rest and a more aggressive style of play.
I also get the feeling that as he is getting more comfortable with his racket, he is willing to rely more on the larger frame to help return shots at full stretch with lesser power, something his older smaller frame did not allow, so he is pulling up earlier to return to a neutral court position when playing a shot, instead of trying to get into better position for the shot.

He is adjusting his play even after 30 year by year. There is a reason why he is called genius.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Nadal and Djokovic retire before him lol.

Murray too perhaps with his aches and pains...would be bad news for Dimitrov, he may have to play Fed in slam finals then
He must have been wearing Nadal's old shirt from a few years ago.....

Rush shipment of 4S canisters to TRS from the sureshsian laboratories after SexiRogi caught some of Poobs' action in the Battle By The Border video. When asked why, Federer said, "I'll have what he's having!"

I agree. Couldn't believe my eyes how Murray attacked Novak in Canada final. I think he will be the No.1 after Djokovic and is my favorite for USO. Things are looking worse for Novak all of a sudden.

Probably is a poor choise of words in this case but how reaching all the 500+ finals in a year is somehow bad for Novak, not to mention that he is having 6k points lead in the ranking. People saying that he has a lot to defend next year but the same applies for Murray as well - 1200, 360, 600, 250, 1000, 720 just until Wimbledon and its very likely that he would never replicate the 2015 results on clay. Not to mention that he would drop the 3 titles in the Fall - China, Viena and Valencia so the gap is even bigger.

He's taking his training regime much more seriously nowadays than all those years ago too. I remember him saying this a couple times.

Careless reading mate? Read my words: "Things are looking worse for Novak all of a sudden."
Obviously I meant the last few weeks. He didn't look good (for his standards) in Canada in the rounds and beaten by Murray in final. In Cinci, almost eliminated by Dolgo, then was toyed around by Federer in the final. Novak has been so good in recent years, reaching finals is not moving forward anymore. He himself said that he was lucky to play in the final because he had not been playing well.

Federer is like a massive eagle,hovvering above the ground winning tennis matches and..erm..looking for field mice.

He's by far the most consistent and dominant guy out there and has won 2 slams this year. He's had an unbelievably great year. These tune ups in Montreal and Cincy mean nothing in the grand scheme of things. Novak only needs to be focused on the USO.
Now had Muzz beaten him in the finals of Montreal and Cincy, then that would be troublesome. I don't think Djoker will win the USO just based on his performances there in the past. I consider Muzz the favorite unless he draws Fed in the semis.

Goffin also had him on the ropes at TRS.

Forgive me saying this but I've never seen so many conflicting thoughts in one paragraph.
1.You think pre-USO is not important for Novak as he will win it no matter what pre-tournament results are.
2.To be beaten by Murray twice would be worrisome for USO but it's OK he was beaten by Federer in Cinci. (conflicts with 1)
3. Your favorite for USO is Murray (conflicts with 1 and 2)
4. Murray can't win USO if he faces Federer in the semis. (conflicts with 3)

You mean that desparate idiot trying to explain away the huge correlation between the onset of bio passport and Nadal's decline. Whatever it is, the bio passport is here to stay.PEDs.

I always thought it was funny in that movie how Matthew Mcconaughey asks Michael Cain, "Who's they?" and Michael Cain just stares at him and never answers.

10 years? That blondie fad of his was in '98 when he won the Orange Bowl. The Swiss flag photo was from the London'12 Olympics...14 years.How come this guy's hair color changed in 10 years from blonde to brown?!

He knew the Tennis Warehouse forums would explode if he did, since the answer is Nadal.

You missed one very important one! His access to Senzu beans. I saw Krillin throw him one right before the 1st set TB.

Nadal recently started doing this workout. Unfortunately for him, he has not learned that he has to remove the weights when he's done.
