Title: Nadal-Federer French 2008 Finals [SPOILERS]
Post by: Aske on June 08, 2008, 06:59:15 AM
Federer the greatest ever?   nope.   not until he can beat Nadal on this surface.

and that's not happening until at least 2009.


this is about as brutal a buttraping as I've ever seen in a grand slam final .

Nadal has arguably the greatest clay player of all time, at least of the last 20-30 years.

after losing  the 1st set 6-1, and down 2-0 in the 2nd, federer now showing some minor signs of life, in particular he has regained some touch on hitting wide short shots and nice droppers off the run.

6-1,6-3,5-0 in the 3rd....   nadal poised to hold serve and bagel federer off the court in route to tying borg's 4 straight clay titles at the french.
