Isner beat Federer in clay in the Davis Cup just last month....
Davis cup is a different thing ... anyone can win against anyone ... no significant prizes or ATP points ...

Are you serious?
Davis Cup means way more to alot of these people..... look at Federer's record in the Davis Cup.

Of course I am serious ... you could check some stats regarding these matches and see that there are more suprises in Davis Cup than in ATP tourneys

I think Nadal beats Isner if that winds up being the final. Nadal is great at this tournament. If Federer wins, I think it's closer to 50-50 for me vs. Isner.

Ok ... you have a point regarding these 2... Nadal is practically unbeatable in Davis Cup matches (his only loss was in 2004's 1st round but he still managed to win against Rodick in the same year's final)

nadal does have trouble with big servers and guys that take a lot of risk on return as isner sometimes does. not a good matchup for nadal as you can also tell from the french open match they played. nobody has ever come so close to beating rafa there except for söderling when rafa was obviously hurting

Update: Officials told Federer and Nadal be ready to walk at 5:15PT, so we should be underway by 5:30 on ESPN Classic and E3, with E2 up@6PT

lol, that was just the first service game... and that was all mental. Fed held, though.
basically this is over. Fed usually starts strong and then crumbles.... but starting weak and then crumbling.. might lead to a 6-2 2nd set demolition

I feel so bad watching these Fed-Nadal matches b/c you literally watch Fed slowly but surely crumble into a little crumb. Fed will reach the tipping point and he'll just fall off a cliff.

jj, watch it off the web
4-3*
15-30
Fed just needs a coach that will make him fight like a man. if he goes in w/ the approach of 'I'm going to get in there and stab him in the neck w/ an ice pick... and then gouge his fukking eyes out slowly"... then he'd beat Nadal every time.... except on clay
instead he plays like a English gentleman and a fukking liberal

Fed has to win this in 2... b/c 3 sets = war time... and Fed's balls are about as big as microscopic atoms when playing against Rafa in the crunch

I am glad rebatewager only let's you have a max play of 250 in tennis or this match would have buried me when I would have risked a ridiculously amount
