Just curious if you thought this year would shape up like 2005, in which either Federer or Nadal won virtually everything. The only exceptions were the Paris Masters (where neither of them played) and the Masters Cup. It's obviously following that patter so far in 2006.

Hmm- it does look like it, but as we all know thats down to poor competition compared with the Sampras Era :devil:
But seriously, the two of them are exceptional at what they do. Especially Nadal on slow courts, Federer on fast . It ll be interesting to see how their rivalry develops and hopefully injury wont spoil it.
But who knows . Blake and Nalbandian could spring a surprise or two this year. :rolleyes:

I wonder what odds you might get for this occurring? I bet that they are shorter than most people might think.

Both players are portraying an impressive invinciblilty, depending on the surface.

I wonder how many players have beaten both in the last couple of years? I have a vague recollection that there might be only one player.. IS it Hrbaty or something??

Neither player is 1005 at the top of his game-both have had health woes this year aftere an amazing 2005.Federer has shown hism sekf to have more chinks and nadals endof year and early matches again were not up to last year. I hope they can both be 100% as when on top form are really incredible!

I reackon you have picked the two i would seriously discount actually

Whys that ?
