If you look at Nadals performance he is good only on clay. Only in last Wimbledon he reached finals otherwise he has an average performance. He not even reaches semis in US and AUS opens. He is No 2 for long bcoz there was not big competition was there before Djokovic. Nobody was very consistent when djokovic showed little consistency he reached near nadal in ATP points but federrer is way ahead. Even in this year Federrer was unfit in the start of the season. In Nadal and federrer nadal rarely faces federrer in other courts bcoz he rarely reaches final whereas in Clay its always nadal v/s Federrer final. Nadal is all time best in clay but in other courts he is OK.

rafa will finish world no 3 at the end of 2008... djokovic will be no 2 with no real change at the top.... yeah agreed that federer is in the midst of his worst season. He made it to semis at australian open, finals at hamburg masters, rome masters n roland garros (he will at the least make it to the semis in london and new york, win a couple of masters and the year ending masters and win a medal at beijing olympics). Folks, if u guys say he is having the worst season of his life, with all due respect to all other players, Federer is way out of the league... And u r talking about phenomenal achievement... Nadal will never be world no 1 for more than 4 months continuously... 2003 fed came, 2005 nadal stormed into the scene... 2007 - djokovic into the limelight... 2009 someone else will come... nadal has no time to waste... he may be 22.. djok is 21, so is murray, gasquet is young... so is baghdatis... they ll all step up the gas and make it that much more difficult for anybody... if amidst all this federer wins at least 1 grandslam this year, there is no stopping federer... Especially if he wins in london... he will make it to finals for sure... and there is a 50% chance for federer to win in new york... my take is that he wins at least one grandslam... if he takes wimbledon he will definitely win beijing gold, us open and year ending msaters where worlds best 8 play... and don forget rafa has NEVER won a masters on hard court... at miami he lost to davydenko...

Aishwariya... u are really the dumbest girl ever seen... No way Nadal is going to win wimbledon ...He will not even reach the final.. he can only win french open... and nothing else.. Fedex by far is the best player in the world and is going to win wimbledon for the sixth time... Watch out for Nadal getting blown down by Roddick today at Queens
