#8230He's just severely under-appreciated because of the Era he plays in. If he was born about ten years earlier, he would have played in an age where I think he would have won a few Slams. But like Hewitt and Roddick and many other pretty good players, his career coincided with perhaps the greatest dominant run of three players ever with Djokovic, Rafa, Federer and you can now throw in Murray too I suppose.
Still, the streak he has been on the last two years hardly gets noticed at Slams because of the bigger names.Comment -

#8234EP, you really think he would be able to win some slams then? In times of sampras, agassi and others? There was this only clever thing the commentator duo produced during todays match - that ferrer did not win a major yet bc his lack of ability to come up wit consistent attacking game. I mean yes, he can hit some winners, but his winning pattern is defence and griding. He ain't comfortable when offered a chance to constantly attack. That should be a feat of grandslam winner.
I just think once power tennis because of body types and equipment - became the norm, guys like Ferrer were always going to have it rough. Sampras may or may not have been able to do what he did in this age. Apples and Oranges obviously at some point. It's a tribute to Ferrer though to be able to outlast guys by just coming after them again and again and not giving in.Comment -

#8237Sampras and Agassi were both wonderful players. I think he would have had a tough time beating Sampras consistently because Sampras is equivalent to Federer whom Ferrer does not match up well with (or didn't). Agassi though was much more of a good stylistic match-up with someone like Ferrer. Agassi probably did everything Ferrer can do a little better, but not the gap in class like you see with Ferrer vs. Djokovic or Rafa or Golden Age Fed. I think they would have engaged in some classic matches.

On a side note - not many people realise that ferrer is winning not only because his physical perseverance, but also (and imho equally important) cos of his mental consistancy.Comment -

#8240Yeah, people rag on players being mentally weak - but not too many give credit to a guy whose strongest point of his game might be the part of his brain that tells him to keep going.Comment -

#8241And don't miss the main beneficiary of this match ... Rafael Nadal. He gets to pick over whatever is left of the winner (assuming he whips Robredo which I think he will). Rafa should be much fresher than whomever he faces in a potential Final.Comment -

#8259Good Luck everybody today with your betting.
To people that complain about tennis being so hard to bet it's nothing compared to baseball. Bloody Hell. Had Atlanta,Detroit and LA Angels yesterday and all lost. penetrating joke of a sport to bet on. Always 50/50 even worse than betting WTA. Good Luck everybody.Comment -
