Which Spaniard (except of Rafa) can win a Slam?

[Saarbrigga]

In the golden era of german tennis, we had Steffi Graf, Boris Becker and Michael Stich.

Graf: 22 Grand Slam titles
Becker: 6
Stich: 1

Ok, Stich won just 1, but he did it, defeated Courier, Edberg and Becker in a row in Wimbledon 1991.

Do you think there is a Spaniard out there who can win a Slam besides Nadal?
Verdasco, Ferrer, Lopez, many outstanding players there...

Verdasco maybe US or Australian Open?
Or Lopez Wimbledon?

It s very funny. 10 years ago it was just Roland Garros (Bruguera, Berasategui, Corretja, Moya), now it s more grass or hard courts.

Why is that?

[Chederer]

yea....i would say the only one with a chance would be verdasco

[coke4]

I dont think any of them can

[Cro Morgan]

When Verdasco is churning on all cylinders he is definitely capable of winning a Slam. Problem is, he only churns on all cylinders once every 22 months.

[djarvik]

...and September is month 22!

I will even go as far as saying that Verdasco on all cylinders is better player then Rafa.

[petrelli83]

I dont think any of them can

agree with u...

all very good players but noone can win a slam!

[Moralspain]

hahaha i see we're quite famous lately, well anyway.... maybe Verdasco could do it, he has talent to win a Grand Slam, he would need to play a Slam playing great and Federer and Nadal playing bad, i mean players like Albert Costa, Gaudio or Safin have won a Slam and in my opinion they are not better players than Fernando, but yeah, it's complicated if Nadal and Federer keep their high level.

Check these stats:

last 23 Grand Slams: Federer=12 + Nadal=8 :20 completely INSANE, only Safin in 2005 (Australia), Djokovic in 2008 (Australia) and in 2009 Del Potro (US Open) have won a Slam since 2005 apart from Rafa and Roger

so the problem for Verdasco, Tsonga, Soderling and another great players is "The Double R" (Rafa & Roger)

[willjonesjrSUSPENDED]

Lol, I almost said Fernando Gonzalez. Gonzalez has better chance than Verdasco but for only Spanish player than it is Verdasco. I was really disappointed to see Ferrer lose that after being up like that in the final tiebreaker. He just gave it away getting tight. Oh well, Verdasco is my answer.

[fedfan]

Federer should have had two of them as well

[Chederer]

he actually should have won the SF against Safin and Djokovic....i think DelPotro outplayed him in that final

In fairness Djokovic outplayed Federer in the Semi Final, i have noe idea of the match v safin

[Moralspain]

what do you mean with "should have had" and "should have won"?? when you lose a match is because your rival has been better than you. Life is full of those "should have done" "should have won"......

i guess you were a wee bit too young for this match....in all honesty Safin really did outplay Fed....it was an amazing match and to me this was the best match i had ever seen in my life
