Exactly the head to head is overrated Sampras has a losing record against Stich does that mean Stich is better then Sampras? Obviously the answer is no. Federer won this French Open fair and square and that's a fact.
H2H record is overrated. At the end of day, only consistency and who gets to win the most slam titles that counts. no one in their freaking mind in 5 or 10 years would still be talking about h2h battles. Graf lost to Seles every time before the stabbing. Graf in the end benefited from Seles' absence and ended up winning the most slams by a tennis player ever. And who exactly remembers and says "hey didn't graf use to lose to seles a lot" when everytime graf's name brought into discussion? Never
ok let me ask you this...does all the other players who are now called the GREATEST have good win-loss record against all the other players while he was on tour..you cant take win-loss record against a single player as a criterian to find the greatest ever..its consistency tht matters..and also hiscompetitiveness on all the surface..
u r simply the best..making 20 consecutive semifinals of with he reached 18 finals and won 14..i think its an incredible record...federer was consistent enough to reach the finals for the 4th time..take it tht way and you wil understand he deserves to win this title.

Although i appreciate rogers talent and admire what he has done i have to pose the question: How can he be the greatest when he can't beat nadal in the big tournaments? He has a losing head to head of 5-2 in slam finals. Surely, the debate of greatness is a bit premature until he beats nadal a few times in slams. So here is a Q for fellow tennis enthusiasts: If nadal beats roger at Wim and/OR US surely he cant be considered the greatest despite 14 slams? Discuss
Very good argument and its one i think about alot too...we all know nadal is arguably the greatest player ever on clay and that rogers favourite tournament is wimbleton..although roger has never beaten rafa on rolland garros he has beaten more then once on clay ie madrid this yr..rafa needed everything he had to beat roger in auz 09 and wimbleton 08..i think no one can denounce rogers greatness but how we define the best ever is def a matter of opinion
Also i think Roger is the only player to be able to take Rafa to five sets in a grand slam final apart from the french open, I don't think Djokovic or Murray would be able to keep up with Nadal in a final
if you think that h2h matters in this kind of situacion then tell me.. nalbandian and balek are better than nadal? because they own him on head 2 head.. wtf ? murray own federer on h2h.. that means that he's better than him? i think murray is not even 1% of federer. in tenis it's all about consistency.. and federer have all that.. 20 straight semifinals or better .. say's all ! :)
It's 2009 fed after 10 years of professional career has won everything.He won everybody but one player opposed his dominance.But we don't know if nadal's best years are ahead of him or not.If they aren't i'm sorry but he is not the best player between the 2.If they are well i think that if he continues like he did the last 2 years 10 slams are not a difficult task for him.And then we will know for sure..
"i'm sorry but he is not the best player between the 2" and that's because i believe that only the best can stay at top of his game for a long period of time.If nadal stops at like 9 or 10 slams then sry but this isn't enough.And don't tell me about his 4 consecutive rg because he was born with that talent.
If Sampras, Agassi, McEnroe and Borg Courier, Safin, Nadal and Soderling have pronounced Federer as "The Greatest of All Time" then who are you, who are we to argue? Does Sampras have a Roland Garros title? Does Sampras have an Olympic medal of any color?
I jumped for joy at news of the crash air france flight 447. I love watching the plane sink to its watery grave. I enjoy hearing the passengers screaming for help. The sound of drowning passengers gasping for air is music to my ear. The bottom of atlantic ocean is a awesome place to sleep on. The moment the jet broke up in midair must have been a kodak moment. I'm disappointed that the death toll is so low. A bunch of bodies floating on the atlantic ocean would've been an awesome sight.
Roger deserves every single conquer he fights for...he is not just a special player...as a citizen he is also to be respected ! His attitude and his concern about his foundation in south Africa...he is an example of a human beeing still at such young age got the bless to look aroung and realize that the world needed more than his magic ability with the racquet...and so he was also endowed with a special feeling...that i hope could be captured for other top players at any sport !
what the fuck is ur problem? ur just another jackass on youtube who thinks he's all high and mighty because he can type some cuss words in the comment box. well guess what, ur really are no t as awesome as u think u are. my advice is that u keep ur comments to yourself and dont try to piss other people off.
Now Roger, only Davis Cup and Olympics (Singles) remain. You can do it.

No, styles make fights. Federer has Soderling's number. Maybe he'll get him one day, but not in a slam.
Soderling's the real deal, however, and he's proven that with his run at Wimbledon...
...which was also ended by Federer.
