Murray will probably win a US or OZ open, maybe even a couple. Berdych needs to win the 1st set tomorrow. If not, it will be a 6-4 6-2 6-2 for nadal.

Like all this talk of how Fed is washed up. For me he still has at least 3 slams left in him.

LOL me too!...Let's say he wins the US Open this year...He would end the year with 2 Slams...How about that!...
Even winning 1 slam is completely awesome!Since Rodge used to win every tourney he was in to (but this is what was insane!Who thought he would do that until his retreat?) we say today "he's over"...Saying this is not knowing Tennis,he's just not on a non-terrestrial level anymore...He's just "a normal champ" now...Nadal is now on a non-terrestrial level...But not on the same way...Not thanx to the same "qualities"... (Ahhhh Puerto.....) :twisted: 8)

I think nadal doesn't have the same aura of invincibility fed had from 2004-2007. people think they can beat him,

Totally agree, people know how to play Nadal it is just extremely difficult to implement effectively, and only a few people have the ammunition.

I can see Federer being a bit like Sampras in the last few years of his career, the ranking starts to slip down and he loses more but he is still one of a very small number who is likely to win a Major.

At least mentally she didn't fall apart from the start like the other two, just totally outclassed.

It's so sad that Dementieva is put in the same class as those two. :cry:

So with the final starting very soon, is anyone giving Berdych a chance? I read that his plan was "all out attack" to beat Nadal.

I've seen many players try that and just go crazy as they see Nadal hit back shots that against any other player would be winners, but then again what else can he do?

Here's hoping he can put up a good fight, after last years crazy final it would suck to see nadal win in straights.

I fully expect Berdych to win. I think he is ready.

This much is a much harder call then it apears.

This is no longer the same Berdych from 2 years ago, this version does everything better, everything. No more choking, it's just hiccups now and then.

I love Rafa, but I want Berdych to win it.

indeed, he finally decided to get with the program and Use similar strings that Nadal AND Federer been using for years. :P


That guy who actually said that, is even a bigger moran then I initially though.

Berdych looks really nervous walking out, a decent start is an absolute must.
