Fed vs.

3. Berdych
4. Nishikori
5. Murray

6. Wawrinka/Tsonga

7. Monfils/Nadal/Bautista/Raonic/Thiem/Dimitrov/Goffin


He'll probably lose to Murray if he gets that far, but if he beats Murray then he's probably in the finals.

Nole is just 2 GS away of tying Sampras. Nadal is tied with Sampras. Will we see the day where the top 3 GS all-time champions ALL PLAYED IN THE SAME ERA? It's possible.

Fed's draw is brutal, ugh...dunno......... He's 35 yrs young yet STILL comfortably in the top 5. He has won just under 25% of tournaments over the course his career- no one touches this. His record in grand slams has NO EQUAL--there is no one EVEN REMOTELY CLOSE to his consistency. Let's keep in mind Fed played in the Nadal era-- Nadal is the greatest clay courter ever; most agree on this, his numbers validate . AT ROLAND GARROS, Fed is second only to Nadal in consecutive Roland Garros final appearances at 4. For perspective , Sampras NEVER MADE it to the final at Roland Garros and reached the semi's only ONCE.


the guy with the second most career GS matches won is Jimmy Connors, He is over 60 behind Fed. SIXTY


havne't seen any of Fed's matches. ..................go get'em Fed.........

And, oh yeah, almost forgot. A muslim ran over and killed several people in Australia and injured more than a dozen... while screaming 'Allah Achbar".


Since we're talking about Australia.

Damn right. Zverev is the real deal and Nadal has continually pulled these escapes... but this time I don't know if he'll make it.

Great price.

Oops. You're talking long term.

I don't think he can go the distance yet. Best value looks to be Raonic, IMO. Think he's getting to the semis.

saw most of the match Vs Berdych. Had the backhand in exquisite form. Incredible serving display, never faced break point and won 95% of 1st serves-- silly. Efficient win in straights ..bring on the Japanese chap. 4th round battle from the baseline.......

7. Monfils/Nadal/Bautista/Raonic/Thiem/Dimitrov/Goffin


i say Milos or Nadal, with outsider as Thiem. Bautista has no chance

Murray down 1-0 sets to Zverez the Other. Don't think he'll lose, but this would open shit up big-time for Fed.

Unreal playing.

Zverev leads 7-5, 5-7, 6-2, *1-0


Up 2-1 sets and a break.



Hope he wins b/c Fed will cook him for dinner.
