Bigger threat is also from Euro slaves.

Indian has rich like LaXMI MITTal whose interest is not India. China has lot of foreign trade in their favour, Pak is more concerned about who pays their bill, etc.
MMS has concerns for his own interest..

Congrats Rafa
by Another Critic on Jun 07, 2010 05:23 AM

Rafa is like a Rabbit that never gets tired running left, right, front and back.

Winning French Open without losing a single set in the tournament second time is an achievement too.

2009 was a bad year with injuries and you announced your come back in a big way on your favorite surface, clay.

That's Game!

As such,
US Open should'nt be counted as a Grand Slam,
when ranking "Greats"!..

If this man wins another of Wimbledon, he's undoubtedly the Greatest &
If his rival wins another of French Open, then he becomes unparalleled....

Under any circumstance,
Bjorn Borg,
with record Grass Court & Clay Court titles to his credit, is the Greatest player of all times, ever created by tennis history.

Borg in his time had to contend with so many great players like Connors, McEnroe, Tanner, Vitas Gerulirist, Nastase, Vilas, Panetta, etc. Though in his time there were nor so many hectic championships and touring to different parts of the world as today. Also, he can count that he had to play wooden rackets for much of his career unlike the super flexible high tech rackets of today that gives added advantage to modern players.

a champion non parallel might go down as one of greatest in games.Needs to omprove on hard court to match roger's slams or coming near to it.kudos to 5 time french open champion.a player who has beaten roger 14 times cannot be ordinary.looking forward to wimbledon where rafa will create magic again.

Nadal will not survive for long time..
by ketan parab on Jun 07, 2010 01:31 AM  | Hide replies

Nadal has a good game but doesnt have good service. He will survive till he has young active legs. Now he is 24. As his age will go on increasing, his activeness will suffer and consequently his game. And since he doesnt have good service, he will not survive. But Federer will since he has good service and good game, in short "Good Service Game".

U saw his improved serves now?
N body gets strengthen till 28-30.
he make opposition heartless by returning anything and evrything.
Do u think its easy for Fedrer when likes of Djoko/Murry knocking on Hard/grass all the time. Rafa/Roddick r good on these surfaces too.

Nadal, the MOST Intelligent Player...
by bango tango on Jun 07, 2010 12:11 AM  | Hide replies

coz whenever he faces a break point, he will take much beyond 20 second to do the serve ....doing all his routine antics n then concentrating on the serve for ages...

n THE MOST FOOLISH EVER PLAYER IS ...roddick...

coz irrespective of the situation , he will take max 5 seconds in between the serves ...

If u think he wins by trick, then who have catched balls of other playrs? y dont they try the trick? r thy gentleman? oops, I nevr know its professional tennis n they have cochs to do the trick. If opposition playrs dont have prob, why whole world have?
I guss othr playr also tried but it goes other ways so they dont try.
He is an Android, whos percentage return is better than anyone else.
He is virus, can wake anytime and kills the opponent.
He is symbol of youth with power n determination.

Roddick didn't quite turned out the genius everyone was saying he'll turn out to be. I guess dating Sharapova and marrying some model did him in. But Roddick looks like he has game to beat anyone on hard and grass courts..

thinking that what made Federer to skip the Monaco Masters but played at the Estoril open when he knew it very well he needed few more points to confirm his ranking of No.1 for more than 286 weeks ???

NOW IT'S OUT n OUT IMPOSSBILE FOR FEDERER TO REGAIN NO.1 WHEREAS THE REAL BATTLE FOR NO.1 WILL NOW ....coz CLAY IS OVER ....n MURRAY,DJKO, POTRO will fight wd nadal for each n every ATP point..

2.y none of the player is complaing of Nadal's open violation of the 20 second rule btwn two serves (in fact, in this years Key Biscane open , the TV telecast was showing the seconds he was taking)??? Particularly, whenever he faces a break point, he takes somewr arnd 40 seconds !!!!! coz it's a Gentlemen's game ????

@bango tango: Nadal is just 24 n with 7 Grand Slam. Who else got till that age?
N who beaten greatest player in the history more no of time than anyone else? Even on hard Nadal is not a kid as his previous days.
He is learning service too aftre 7 GS.
For ur Ref cut from wikipedia:
Ten of Nadal's 14 wins over Federer have come on clay courts, Nadal's best surface. Nadal leads their overall head-to-head series 14-7 (Nadal leads 10-2 on clay, Federer leads 2-1 on grass, they are tied (3-3) on hard courts).

@ R Subramani--
1.Djko bounces the ball so many times but does not take more than 20 seconds
2.You bet that nadal will overcome the habit....do u know personally ??? howcome u can be soo confident ??? something fishy :-)
3. Federer complained of bad light which is not beyond the rule....remember , HE COMPLAINED , didn't break the rule...
4.sorry , I can't cheer for nadal ...once Federer gets defeated, I cheer for rest of the players except nadal...
5. u tell me wt u ve acheived in ur life....I'm sure I have acheived much more than in ur life .....have ur pic come anytime in newspaper atleast once , for any sports ????

u could write only 6 records of nadal....most of them are in clay...if i write of federer, it will be a 10000 ages book :-) ...just check in wiki ..

Why the same being repeated from you!?Can't digest the success of a great sportsman?
Did you see the presentation ceremony yesterday? Robin, didn't even care to clap when Rafa received the trophy?
May be taking more time between serves is his and the only bad habit which of course he will overcome (I bet). Even Djokovic takes too much time is between serves. Didn't Federer started complaining to the chair umpire about the bad light during Wimb 2008? Everybody has a weakness. Rafa, is a great sportsman (I am not offending Roger here) who is more gracious than anybody while accepting defeat. Soderling has a attitude which he exhibited after winning the last year 4th round and didn't even care to shake hands with Rafa. The problem with you ppl is U can't admire ppl who have achieved so much at this age and tel me what you have achieved(hypocrite). I being a Rafa fan, and whenever Rafa fails in mid of any tournament, will cheer for Roger (nay day), but u just want that disgusting Soderling to beat Rafa, no matter what? Makes any sense?
Rafa
___
1)3rd Fastest player to achieve 7 GS in 24 attempts(After Borg, Mcenroe).Fedex took 27.
2)18 ATP Masters at age 24-Roger had 3.
3)Best winning percentage till date in current playing era.
4)French Open Champion on Debut
5)Longest single-surface winning streak (clay):81 matches
6)Only the third teenager in history (since 1973) to reach world no. 2..the list is endless.I agree Roger is a classic player but respect for what Rafa has ach

...i grudgingly but completely concede that he is the greatest ever.

it's simply his game, especially during the run of invincibility he had a few years back, that makes him the greatest.

the reason why he did not have competition was that he was/is simply much better.

looks the atp points tally, you will see that there is competition between nadal, djokovic and murray. but federer, even with form that is not quite how it was a few years back, is head and shoulders above.

he is the greatest ever
