Nadal always seems to recover well after a rain break or delay though, he'll come out firing tomorrow. Hopefully both do and we get 5 sets.

Ideally Djoko wins but can't see Anderson beating either after that marathon match.

Nadal could threaten if he gets to 25 slams or something mental but still doesn't have the variety Fed has, more than 60% of his titles are from RG.


Couldn't disagree with this more. If either Nadal or Djokovic comes near his grand slam tally Federer is finished. The guy had half a decade of statpadding against nobodies and 40 year olds before Nadal came along and ruined him head to head.

Real talk that tiebreak alone was of a higher calibre than 90% of Grand Slam matches.

Executing multiple perfect drop shots with all the pressure in the world on them, impressive they even have the courage and composure to play them in those situations.

Can argue it a million ways, people will always disagree. For me Fed is near enough the pinnacle of all sportsmen let alone just tennis, the man is incredible in all facets of the game. His grace on the court, the way he's come back when everyone thought he was done like Tiger Woods, his recent record over those at the top despite being 36 and the way he conducts himself (the odd smashed racket aside) only enhances that. Most dominant on one surface ever is clearly Nadal, but then could argue against your stat padding and just say Nadal is only a beast on clay (64% of his slams) and hasn't even had to face his biggest competition in the last 2.
Completely different styles, like Nadal, love Roger, for me the GOAT, for you maybe not.
