the bunny is going to scratch its behind and pull at his underwear and make a run for it (wtf title) again the coming years... cant wait to see the bunny getting crushed again.
Rafas not been at his best at the WTF...maybe a bit nervy trying to confirm the year end no.1 ranking..whatever it is , history beckons..if he wins WTF it will be his first crown here , not to mention a world record 6 masters in a year to cap off the two GS crowns he won this year.All this after a 7 month career threatening injury lay off.Vamos Rafa , just do it champ !

History beckons Nadal.. but he fails horribly at the final hurdle. Cant say if he will again get the same chance to create record of winning most masters in a year. The WTF is a tournament won by Fede a record 6 times... people should acknowledge Fede as the GOAT, just for this simple reason.

People will not acknowledge things for flimsy reasons.The WTF is just one of the many masters.Winning it 6 times doesnt make anyone a GOAT.If so,Nadal should be GOAT for the simple reason of winning the Monte Carlo Masters a record 8 times.

The WTF is just one of the many reasons why Federer is considered the GOAT by many (except for blind Nadal fans)... Fede's only black mark is the h2h record he has against Nadal. Now thats one flimsy reason why Fede cant be the GOAT.
Anyway the WTF is just not one of the masters... its a 1500 points tournament compared to the regular masters which is only 1000 points to the winner. Also the WTF format makes it one of the most difficult tournaments to win.
Rafa is in gr8 form and should beat Fede...hope Fede takes him to 3 sets....final against Djo will be tough, but this is Rafa's best chance....as a die-hard GOAT Fede fan, was very delighted to see Fede beat dangerous Delpo, even though he was behind in all the 3sets. Hope he has a better 2014 !

nadal is not dead until buried... hope fedex buries him this time. nadal is in great form, no doubt... but then he has recent defeats against del po, djoko, ferrer in the last month or so... fedex has to believe and he has got nothing to lose playing against someone who is 5 yrs his junior and in prime of his career.
You might hav been better served taking your foot off the pedal in the 3rd set yday...you had already gone way beyond everyone s expectations by taking DelPo to 3 sets.Now look what youve done...whos waiting for you in the semis??? YESSSSSSS the Spanish matador who OWNS you!!!!!!!
Even if you beat Fed in the Semis you know who is waiting for you in the finals....????
Yessssss your "Papa" DJOKOVIC!!!!
(You can bet Nads is praying for a Wawa win over Djoker if Nads wins tomorrow. Actually the thought of Djoker may frighten Nads tomorrow itself!!!! Ha Ha.)

And didnt you eat tonnes of crow grandly announcing you would quit these boards if Nadal won the US Open.Be a man first and stand by your words before you point fingers at others.
Its just as I had predicted... a win in 3 sets for the great Federer. It was another classic and the dangerous Del po was taken down in the decider. I'm now not worried how his semifinal will go.. he has already made his fans proud by qualifying for the semis 11th time in his 12 consecutive WTF appearance.
