I am hoping Nadal can step it up
to the next level and really pressure
Federer. I dont think he has the game on grass
but I do think he has the mental toughness.

assuming they play of course. Nadal should
have an easier way to the finals.
Nadal is going to give him a hell of a battle on Sunday if tomorrow goes according to plan for them.

As is my alarm. The All-England Club couldn't have asked for two better singles finals.

Tomorrow will be a very interesting day. There isn't a result that would surprise me. Blow-outs in either direction or 5 setter to either. This match has the makings of one of the all time classics.

A Nadal blowout of Federer would surprise me.

For me Federer is by far the better player on this
surface in almost everyway from a shotmaking standpoint.

Nadal is a model of focused intensity.
Most people vibrate out of their skull with his competitiveness,
but somehow Nadal is able to use it in a useful manner.

If McEnroe had been able to accomplish this feat...
We might be talking about the best of all time from him.
McEnroe could hit every shot in the book.
