Roger vs Rafael: Who will win?

will roger federer hold all four slam titles at the same time or will rafael nadal win his 60th clay court match and his fifth match against federer in the french open finale?

 

[Hoggy31]

Nadal will win.

I'm not willing to elaborate on that statement.

 

[Buddhmaster]

I hope Federer kills that *****

 

[Pothas]

Tthis is a huge match which has been a little bit lost with the world cup. I dunno who will win but Federer got very close to beating him a few weeks back.

I think Nadal will win it in 5 sets, i'm hopefull of a classic match.

59 ungames unbeaten on clay is unbelievable,this guy is something special.

I hope Federer wins. But Nadal seems to have the mental edge over him.

 

[cameeel]

I'm with buddhmaster.

I hope Federer thrashes him

 

[Matt79]

I'd like Federer to win and in doing so cement his place as one of the true all-time greats, but I think Nadal is too strong on clay - that said, if Federer was ever going to beat him at the French Open, this would be the year given how much extra court time Nadal has had (3 or 4 more hours I think?)

 

[roseboy64]

Nadal will probably win. Federer isn't that good on clay.

 

[oz_fan]

I think Federer will win in 4 sets.

Yeah that's true. Probably the only player in the world (obviously only on clay).

Federe was fairly ordinary for 1 and a half sets against Nalbandian. Then he just flicked a switch and brought his A game for the rest of the match until Nalbandian retired hurt.

I'm going to go Federer in 4.

Federer will have learnt enough from their recent battles to win, hes a very smart player and I think he really wants this title, Nadal is due for a loss...

Nadal won it last year though. He'll probably go in favourite.

 

[Top_Cat]

Nadal in four sets or better although I don't really care; I really like watching them both play.

 

[Jono]

Federer up 4-0 in the first set. Come out firing on all cylinders.
