Sounds better than it probably is.

This sounds more exciting than it probably will be.
Remember: Nadal will need to be standing on the slow gravel to stand a chance against Federer's slices and angles, but he will need Federer to ALSO stand on gravel to make use of his specialty: top spin.

Federer on the other hand already has an advantage if Nadal stands on grass which will make for very fast play (and probably many aces). And if federer stands on grass, well, that's not advantage to Nadal, and we all know it certainly is no disadvantage to Federer either.

So like I said, it sounds more exciting that it probably is or will be, unless both players decide to make a real show out of it.

I am not too sure if Federer will play on the grass side (grass is for cows, remember?). Besides, wont they change sides after every game?
