I believe Djokovic is better player than nadal in this surface. Nadal faced ordinary players so far,murry improved now.so i can say he has 50% to reach final .i could not see any magical momentum from nadal till now,i am not expecting from him,he dosn't have that much skill as well as lot of chace to getting injury,i am damn sure he cannot play 2-3 years continuously because has to use entaire power for each and every shot,,the real final happening in federer VS Djokovic semifinal.
Roger Federer has won 12 Grand Slams and has entered 18 successive semi final in Grand Slam events. Despite this impressive record, there are some, who are calling Nadal as the favourite to win the championship. How can anyone else be a favourite when someone like Federer is also playing. Federer is, and will remain the favourite to win all championships in future.

History favours Federer as he is the most successful active tennis player in the world. Also his 4 consecutive US Open titles make him an automatic favorite here. But if you watched how well Nadal plays, it is reminiscent of the dominance of Fed for the last four years, Nadal would beat anyone with his current form. So based on current level of play and confidence Nadal is surely the first favorite to win the title, Fed might be second favorite. But given that Djokovic had a better year than Fed and can topple him from 2nd rank should he win US Open I reckon Fed is only the third favorite to win USOPEN. Whether his fans like it or not thats the cold fact.
no glamer simple and sober player leander peas shown that if you keep concuntrate ur mind on the game only then you can get success. im pround on peas my heartly wishes to peas that win the man's double titel also.

You stole my words buddy. I agree fully. I love his spirit. He should be a role model for all young sportsmen a nd in other fields too.
Semifail,nadal and federer first time in this tournemnt facing quality players.. jokovic danger than nadal in harcourt..so if federer not playing in his max form (less possibility) chances are 50 50 same story in other semi also. if murry is playing good form chances are 50 50
Don't know who has written this article, and what does he mean by five setter, where neither Roger Fedrer nor Djokovic have been mentioned playing a five setter match........just want to say 5 setter is very good to listen but use it carefully....

Can anybody imagine before Wimbledon that Nadal can beat Federer. Even Nadal said after the match "I was not expecting the win".

As you said "I am not sure who is going to what in next four years. ". Thats the point it is too early to say that Nadal is better than Federer. Wait at least 4 years.
