    Federer vs. Nadal

    I'm taking Federer in this match. I haven't bet too much this slam but here is a good spot. I honestly feel like Federer will dispose of Nadal in straight sets. Nadal's serve hasn't been impressive thus far and Federer is putting the ball wherever he wants. I definitely see serving out wide on the left box giving Nadal some problems recovering for the rest of that point.

    Nadal has Fed's number in slams but most of those are on clay. Besides they haven't met in a slam in awhile. Federer is in his prime right now. This last 6 months is the best tennis he's ever played in his career. The only thing that would worry me is if he can go the distance, but I think this will be a 3-4 set match.

    Nadal was really good against Berdych in the last round, but that wasn't the old Nadal. He's just lost a half a step. He's not ready to beat Federer right now.

    Yeah I think Fed will take him too but can see it going 4 sets instead of straight sets.

    On fed as well but with no confidence. I think he wins, or should win but would not be surprised if rafa comes out n plays his best tennis

    a guy with a somewhat limited game in berdych was able to cause a lot of trouble for nadal
    federer will definately expose nadals weaknesses with more efficiency
    if u watched their match the other nite, it was berdych's match to lose
    he had total control of most of the points

    I think the juice on this line is pretty nice, rolling with Federer big on this one.

    at the end of last year , I was watching him and I felt he played up to par to the best tennis he ever produced in his career.

    I imagine Goat Milk is weeping this morning. So much for your new era of domination theory dude. This much is certain, Rafa > Federer at this point in time.
