Seriously,what % of matches on clay does Nadal lose ? 2%,and Federer got that already this year(not to mention this particular clay court appears to be Nadal's best venue...no matter what.) It will take an injury to Nadal(for Federer to win the French.)That's certainly possible.Didn't it already happen in 2004? Seems like Nadal was injured for the French. The thing is though that even a player like Davydenko was competitive against Federer in the semi this year.He choked on almost every big point,but it wasn't like Federer was superb on Friday.Roger just doesn't like this venue.I have never seen that forehand that off.He is a little more one dimensional(power serve and groundstrokes) than people would like to admit.His assets are quite neutralized at the French.
