i don´t think that nadal will play in this level many years, djokovic will win some GS in his career and federer´s career will be longer than nadal´s career, the big problem for nadal are injuries, with his game style maybe he will play in his best level until 28 - 29, being optimist, so is very dificult that he catchs federer.

The real question is which ones of these (if any) are real injuries? :lol:



....and yeah, mentioning Edberg in any situation is sure to give more attention to your post.

Vamos Edberg!!!!

Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

yeah i noticed that too, but it's strange, maybe it's just an impression cause main factor for baldness is genetic, and all his male relatives have "good" hair :lol:, well stress can influence too, but in that case it would be temporary
