RAFAEL NADAL- ALL TIME GREAT..

Consider this, he is a man who is only 24 years old. He has played in 6 french open's and he has lost only a single match at roland garros. He has 7 grand slams to his name. He is the only man apart from Bjorn Borg to have won 5 French Open titles. I think that is enough of an introduction and reasons to make him not only the greatest clay court player of all time but also one of the greatest players to have played the game. Add to that a winning record against a certain "ROGER FEDERER". i salute him for winning again at roland garros. after the disappointment of last year, he has fought really hard for this. no win for rafa comes easy. his powers of concentration are amazing. his focus is pinpoint. just look at his game..he never makes any unforced errors ( minimal, if any). and having seen his battles with federer, i think he is a greater fighter than him. i think he tries even harder. should he keep himself fit, i think he will go on to win many more slams. at least he will definitely break Borg's record of 6 roland garros titles. even though soderling did not play at his best in the final, i guess you can't expect him to play always at the level he played against Federer. heavy conditions had definitely helped Soderling defeat Federer. but anyhow. kudos to rafa..this is his moment..wishing him luck for future..it will be a different ball game at wimbledon..and i almost forgot, rafa is world no. 1 again. so, next is the grass court season ( albeit short) where roger will be gunning for a 7th wimbledon title..i do feel that winbledon will be overshadowed by the greatest sporting event of the millenium..fifa world cup 2010.
