Nadal Or Federer?

Well, Roger has nothing left to prove. He's the greatest of all time so whoever
wins, doesn't really matter to me.

Thanks

Still though in a one off match...you'd have to say Rafa is favourite (has beaten Roger on grass,hard court and clay

  Way to skew stats. 10 of his 14 wins against Roger have been on Clay.
  
  Proves nothing as Wimbledon is on grass.
  
  Federer - 16 Major Titles
  Nadal - 7 Major Titles
  
  That's all that matters in my book.
  
  Thanks

  Well, if you don't like Federer or Nadal, yeah, it can get pretty boring for
  fans.
  
  There are a few guys out there who I would like to see win a few:
  
  Murray
  Roddick
  Djokovic
  Hewitt
  Melzer (he's really moving up in the rankings)
  
  Other than these guys, I have very little interest these days. I'm a big
  Federer fan but like I said, he's got nothing left to prove so watching him
  has lost some juice for me. I like Nadal but I can't root for him against
  Federer.
  
  I still long for the old days of tennis, but I won't get into that here.
  
  Thanks

  If you think thats boring, you should try being a darts fan
  
  Phil Taylor won th UK Open at the weekend, thats the 67th "Major" he has won.
  
  67 major titles plus countless non majors.
  
  Since 1990 (his first world championship final appearance) there has only been 2 finals without Taylor and out of the 18 finals he has played, hes won 15 of them
  
  Thanks

Comments like these crack me up. Roger Federer has been nothing but a
total gentleman in every interview he has ever done. He always, always
compliments the people he plays against.

I'm not saying Nadal isn't nice because he is. In fact he's a sweet kid, but
to say that Roger is not nice is just ridiculous.

Like I said, >>to me<<, Nadal seems nicer. I never said Federer was an evil, bad person, quit interpretating things the wrong way and blowing things out of proportion.

Fed is an all-time great, and Nadal is well on his way to holding that title as well.

Personally I love watching both players play but for different reasons.

Nobody plays a more beautiful game then Fed, but the passion that Nadal plays with is something to be admired as well.

Both awesome.

Thanks

>>Nadal Or Federer?

Can I please choose between Kournikova or Sharapova instead?

To me, Nadal or Federer is a lot like boxers Jake Dempsey and Gene Tunney. Tunney beat Dempsey twice, but most experts feel Dempsey was the better fighter, he just didn't match up well against Tunney.
