people can say what they want but facts speak for themselves. all the records, titles and achievements point to only ONE GOAT: ROGER FEDERER.

He lost to Rafa twice as many times as he beat him,but that was because the ATP manipulated the courts and wind speed and humidity on Nadal's side of the court.

Clay blues court tested the players skill. Federer proved once again why he is all time best.

nadal can't win a single tournament

if the 25 seconds serve rule is strictly followed...but it's a Gentleman's game and he takes advantage of that...

In the match between Nadal & Verdasco , the avg. serve time btwn points by both players was 39 & 33 seconds respectively......On one point, the stop watch was displayed on his serve on the TV screen, n it stopped at 41 secs !!!!

clay blues tested nothing but skating skills.Federer just proved that he cant be beaten if someone else takes out Nadal and Djoko.

his country over joys his repeated victory and he is as usual modest.
Contrast take our great Sania Mirza who will win the first round and get kicked out subsequently and will be widely talked about and the government honour her with Khel Ratna and Padma Shree, etc.

Demons, get your record straight.Nadal did not reach the finals of the 2011 Aus Open. Also Federer reached 17 of 17 Grand Slam Finals from Wimbledon 2005 to US Open 2007 and French Open 2008 to Aus Open 2010 except Aus Open 2008 where he lost in semi finals to Djokovic. Whilst Nadal is a great champion and will rule the roost for quite some time, one must also appreciate the achievements of his great contemporary Federer.

Why don't we just wait for either Djokovic or Nadal to break Federer's GS record? Until then, Fedex is GOAT. Numbers don't lie...

Instead,lets wait for Federer to overtake Nadal in the H2H.Until then,he's not as good as Nadal.After all,it's your argument that numbers dont lie......

GOAT Fedex

The GOAT has created history that will never be repeated-he has won the first and last tournament on blue clay.Because with the worlds best 2 players threatening to boycott the tournament,the organisers will revert to real clay next time.Enjoy it while it lasts,GOAT.

Victoria Azarenka is World No 1,and before her Caroline Wozniacki was no 1 for a long time,but we all know who win the big ones....I wasnt talking about rankings.The worlds best 2 players at the moment are Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic.

There is only one best player and thats Djoker right now...So dont tag Rafa with him and learn to stand on ur own....Until Rafa can win consistently against Djoker, he will always remain his B
