I have solid evidence that Federer had over the years, bribed all his opponents to lose the matches, so that he could establish the record of sixteen grand slam wins.

google 'did new york times out roger federer' for the truth about federer.I am shocked beyond words.
GOAT - Roger Federer - Nobody close to him as of now.
Rafa : Special and closest to Roger - Will have to see after 2 years if he can surpass Roger
Djoker: Last man standing in Rafas way . Only potential talent to stop Nadal from going closer to Roger and has potential to become GOAT himself by 3 to 4 years .
The way Fedrer lost to Djoko was really disappointing. Infact Tsonga gave a run for money to Novak while Fedrer was playing like ladies singles. I could only see the highlight of that match and later I heard that Nadal beat Ferrer in straight sets but I was worried as Djoko has beaten Federer in straight sets, I thought Djoko's game would be awesome and Nadal will be deprived of World record. But Nadal has beaten Djoko easily in final. That shows Fedrer was playing bad against Djoko and Djoko did not do anything special but Federer was just beatable.

Ifs and buts should not be relied upon, but the way djokovic started playing on Sunday and won 8 games in a row, Nadal was looking lost. the rains saved Nadal surely.

One thing i really dont understand, Why everyone talks that Federer won the GS when there was no other player in his era ? What was NADAL doing when Federer was winning all ???? Federer was winning during 2004-2007 and NADAL was also winning during this same period, only difference was NADAL was winning only on CLAY and Federer was winning all other than CLAY ..!!!!
Be warry of Nadal my bad friends... Its not winning important for Nadal but the way he won. Last year people were saying its rediculous for Nadal that Nova is beating him in his own back yard by playing long rallies. Nadal again beat him in rallies, power which is strength of Nova. Rafa lost 7 finale to Nova last year. two on clay and 5 at other surfaces... Nadal giv him back 3, four more to go, Nova be careful and hold urself or u will be thrshed by Nadal again... Its gonna be greatest Wimbledon of all time this year... Nova at his best... Ever green Fedex... Power of berdych... New Murry... And with new style of play Nadal... I cant see Nadal loosig to anyone in Wimbledon, 12th slam is almost assured...

I am alright,let Wimbledon come,Novak will bounce back.I hear from my inside sources that there will be another surface change at Wimbledon this time.
It is tremendous phase of men's tennis for the last three four years when we have witnessed some unbelieveable matches between Rafa , Roger and Nole . Rafa and Novak belong to the same category of gritty fighters who actually while challenging Roger's finesse and elegance and genius , have made huge impressions of their own . I for one dont rule out Roger completely against winning a grand slam , but there is no doubt that he has struggled beating Rafa and Novak in 5 setters and have also had the rub against the green in few matches against them in Grand slams.The difference for me is the fact that rafa and Novak seem to be realizing the importance of big points or phases in a match whereeas roger plays the same way throughout, there is no extra urgency or attempt . In earlier days when he was younger he won the big phases of matches. I would really want to see Roger in the semi finals of Wimbledon against Rafa or Novak and see how he copes with either of them in the grass court as there is where he has the best chance of beating them .
More the reports it is often the postings which become very interesting .Although very often I find the languages in some of the comments -disgusting . While the two players often remain good competitors and show great sportsmanship .We fight . Tow great players who can be in the list of all time great played a great match - so enjoy and may be repeat in TV.Pity another great is not even a shadow of what he was - Fedderer , may be he has to settle with 16 and no further .Nadal may also reach those mile stones .Anyway at the end I can only say saw some exiting sport and compare it to mix match trash we were given for 45 days What a misery it was ! well I have not watched a single match and watched it in Air ports on and off. We seem to get lot of thrill out of make belief like in films.
