Well we know what this match is going to boil down to:

Nadal forehand to the 1HBH
Fed's BP conversion rate
Fed's fitness

Got a feeling that this going to go 5 sets

I think it could end in 4 honestly. Grigs gave Nadal problems and Fed is like Grigs on roids. Nadal has to make Fed work and out last him, as well as try to expose that backhand, similar to what happened to Grigs. Could go either way, wouldnt be surprised if it ended in 4 though, as i said.

while a part of me acknowledges that federer is playing at a higher level than he has been the past how many months... I think Grigs is Fed in a timemachine, running the balls, being able to reach the high bounce balls especially on BH, being able to buggy whip

that said, fed does have better accuracy, makes smarter shots, deadlier drop shot, better slices, they are about equal in terms of serve.. as in both deadly.

Fed playing +
nadal playing -/=

:yeshrug: Idk really...

love one handed backhands.

i used to have tennis lessons and i was the only one in our group who used it

teacher tried make me change to two hands :rudy:

a good one handed backhand is the prettiest swing in the sport. hard as fukk to learn if you havent been doing it early though. i have a 2 hander myself, but randomly used a one hander in a high school doubles match back in the day and hit a winner down the line with it. felt good as fukk but i was :merchant: at it actually working. thing is, NTPR and USTA both require the pro to be able to be proficient in using and teaching both, but i have heard of them looking the other way on one handers and sometimes even exempting coaches from the performance part of the testing due to playing history. :salute: to you and your one hander though. chances are your coach didnt really know how to teach the one hander, or was too lazy to teach two different backhands within the same group. probably wanted to keep it consistent amongst all players.thats wack though :camby:

@yoyoyo1 @BeeBoyWhoo yoyoyo set up a dummy bet or somethin so i can get beeboy his 10k. ill throw you $500 as a tip. :heh:

by the way its been one of the most entertaining grand slams the tennis has been high level and playing styles have been complimenting each other well in many matches its not always about the long matches
