Title: Has this draw been made for Nadal or what?

Fed has the horror group in comparison, with A-rod and Ljubo's huge games and Nalbandian being the champ! roflmao

Meanwhile rafa has Dour Davy, Robredo and Blake! I don't get it! roflmao

I disagree. Rafa's changes would have been bigger in a group with Nalby and Ljubi

well easy to say in hindsight - I think you're doing Nalbandian a disservice, I'd fancy him to see him off.

I think Rafa's game is becoming found out a little - Blake and Berdych certainly know what to do, how long before some others do?

If you're looking for someone to sympathise with him don't look at me roflmao

Hopefully "Mr. no-miss" is starting to falter

Doesn't look good for him after today. Blake has always been a big bogeyman for him anyway.

Was also wondering Federer has already broken $$ won in a year (but not with inflation)? I don't know the maths. How much $ is the masters and if he wins it will he have beaten Pete's $$ record accounting for inflation?

That's great Sam, if you want zero competition on the mens tour :rolleyes:

I prefer to see players playing attacking tennis challenging fed, ala Safin or Nalbandian. You always end up with fantastic matches that way.

Nadal just doesn't excite me, sorry. Fed has more natural attacking tennis talent in his little finger than Nadal does in his body

I agree with this. Although I admit not everyone can play as 'beautifully' as Federer I don't like Nadal's style which I would agree is 'ugly', laborious and uninteresting. (grinding opponents down).

However I do agree with dl04, he is the only person bringing genuine competition to Federer, and whilst I want Roger to win every tournament, he does bring a challenge to overcome.
