If Federer and Nadal do meet again in the final it's the biggest match of tennis ever played. 

 

The two greatest players, in their final years giving us one last hurrah to show us how they want to be remembered, the defeat where Federer couldn't stop crying after losing to Nadal here is widely still regarded as the final that hurt him the most, winning would be the ultimate redemption. 

 

I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about it.

Harsh man! lol 

 

Likeable bloke not his fault people will use it as bat to beat Murray with. 

Ha, that is true. He seems to be a decent guy.

 

If anything my dislike is based out of respect for his play because I know how dangerous he is to Murray. Or anyone else on tour when he's on song, for that matter.

Very good player, seems far more threatening at the slams than the Masters though, and people remember the Slams.

Yeah, a 100% record in Slam finals speaks for itself.

 

FWIW if he beats Fed I think he'll win the final and make it 4 from 4. He knows how to neutralise Rafa on this surface and Dimitrov blows hot and cold way too much.

Bit hot at the moment though that's the problem lol

Love Roger, have a real dislike for his wife and he seems to attract more than his fair share of clueless fans around the globe....celebrating like that on a Wawrinka double fault was a bit out of order imo.

She doesn't like Stan does she. Called him 'crybaby' at the world tour finals a few years back. Him and Roger probably get on fine, just tells him to ignore the wife lol

She looks a right miserable cow every time I have ever seen her and with how placid he seems I'm guessing she's the man in that relationship.

 

Not in the tennis forum often but from what I'm reading is this about the time to expect KingFox in to let everybody know how he fancied it would go the distance and for Roger to pinch the decider!? lol

Yeah expect a summary of what's just happened written to sound like he saw it coming. lol

Well done FedEx.

 

Actually getting rather excited by the idea of one last Fed-Nadal hurrah. It will likely just be an echo of their glory days but if anyone has earned a last moment in the sun it's those two.

Absolutely, :fc:. It'd be great for tennis in general.
