That Stefanki has gotta get his eyesight checked ,,

How can Borg ever be faster than Nadal ? Just compare the respect videos of their matches, Borg's exchanges are slow-motion if viewed side-by-side against any of Nadal's matches !

Thats not even mentioning the ridiculous saves Nadal has made from near impossible distance !

@GueorguiJoukov so, you´re saying that roger never threw a raquet in anger, in his entire life? you really sure about that..? no offense, but you´re very uninformed! he´s smashed the shit out of raquets on numerous occasions!

[extradutyfelt1]

@patelsoccertennis10 you are the one who has no ideia what you´re talking about ! if you knew anything about roger, you would know that he was a real hot head, in his youth, he smashed raquets frequently, when he was younger..he said so, in his book, which I have read! have you? come back with better knowledge and then we can talk..

[patelsoccertennis10]

@extradutyfelt1 first of all that was once. I said give me two times. If you show me a video then i will believe you. I searched and only one video showed up.the miami masters 1000 in 2009 is the FIRST AND LAST time he smashed his racket. You have no idea what you are talking about. Come back with better knowledge and then we'll talk.

@patelsoccertennis10 don´t need to send you anything, it´s on youtube, type in federer smashes raquet-> the miami masters 1000 in 2009, where he last smashed a raquet, will probably show up.

[patelsoccertennis10]

@extradutyfelt1 send me TWO OR MORE VIDEOS where he is throwing his racket and then you can talk

That Larry guy seems like someone had a punch right to his nose lol

@Abbasi123456789 Lol, Rafa stopped being a clay courter in 2007/2008. And two other things to consider: 1. Rafa is 5 year younger than Fed. 2. The statistics are slanted against Rafa because there's only 1 GS on clay and 2 on HC. How many slams do you think Rafa and Roger would have (even with Rafa being 5 years younger) if the opposite was the case?.

Andy Roddick is so HAWT

[explodingpimp]

@GueorguiJoukov Are you kidding me? He's done all of that! He's thrown several rackets, there are like 20 videos of the one he smashed against Djokovic, and like 20 videos of him cussing out the umpire and complaining about Del Potro at US Open 2009

Rafa is the modern day Borg, and it is fitting to see Bjorn at SW19, watching a future version of himself. Even more ironic is that their level of accomplishments are almost identical at age 25 (when Bjorn retired). Both has 6 FO's and if Rafa wins tomorrow, he will not only tie Bjorn's major totals (11) but have an equal number of 'channel slams' ( 3 FO and Wimbledon in the same year).

This is such an old argument. It's quite sad anyone is still trying to use it. How many finals on hard court has Rafa reached? And won? He's even beaten Federer.
