I know we have the masters to come but i can't wait till the new year, i think with Murray winning were going to see the best of the best next year.

Nadal needs to man up. Didn't ever think I would be typing that tbf.

Yes.

Surely it should please you, as it gives Federer a great chance of winning another French Open?

If Nadal is still dead/struggling for fitness, it's almost certainly going to be a Djokovic v Federer final.

I think he'll be alright by late May, probably. No idea where he'll end up in terms of seeding by then though having said that.

I do want Fed to win one more major by hook or by crook. Preferably 20 more really but one is fine, as he'd have the same amount as Jack Nicklaus; granted, that's in a different sport.
