Wikipedia regarding Rosewall actually gives a detailed rundown of SPECIFICALLY Rosewall versus Laver head-to-head,[denoting where it is that given full-match results are occasionally incomplete],but according to this record, Rosewall And Laver went head-to-head in no less than 150-plus matches[accredited official tournament matches],with Laver ahead at 80+ wins to Rosewall's 70+. Jesus! 150+ head-to-heads! Probably unheard of today between any given two players.
Rosewall beat Laver all of four times in the French Pro in the 1960s? I didn't know that. Add the 1968 French Open final and the 1972 final of the World Masters or World Championship,or whatever it was called,and that makes 6 and counting involving Rosewall over Laver. But which is not to say that Laver didn't finish ahead in head-to-head in Laver versus Rosewall. What is the head to head between these two? Probably a sorry story for Rosewall regarding pre-final Wimbledon encounters?
Rosewall defeated Laver in the French Pro final four years running; he won that event 8 times in 9 years. Held at Roland Garros.
There is no question who was the greater clay courter.
You don't have to do "would have" when talking about Rosewall v Laver. They were both pros in the 60s during their prime years, look up the results! There was no domination by either, they were both awesome and had many victories in their storied rivalry.
Wha? Stepanek has beaten Federer twice, 2008 Rome being the last time.
Laver won the slam in '69, so much for the depth of the game taking him over.
Rosewall & Laver were cheated out of their great prime years by the fools who insisted that the slams remain amateur events. Rosewall won the French Pro 8 times in 9 years in the '60s, defeating Laver in the final 4 times; he sandwiched this with his French Amateur title in '53 and his French Open in '68.
I'm not sure what you're getting at. My point was that Laver got challenged by the likes of Taylor and Stillwell, as Federer has been challenged himself. Of course, seven months ago I did not anticipate that Federer's woes would continue. I expected a quick turnaround. As for Rosewall/Laver, I don't believe that they were cheated out of their peak years; just because we privilege grand slam events now doesn't mean we did then. There were other great events that meant a lot.
