So Tennis Fans on Nairaland What Do you all think about this two guyz.Who is better?Federer Or Nadal

i think roger federer is the best tennis player



though he still has to prove himself on da clay court



thats about the only edge rafael nadal as over him

The only reason a comparison like this will even arise is the need for competition. Roger is the man hands down.

i hope roger can win the french open in june



thats da only grand slam  thats he"s yet 2 win



gut luck man! 

Roger Federer any day.

I'll the take the Iceman from the Swiss Alps anyday. Nadal needs to improve on grass and hard courts.

Despite nadal beatin roger 4 about 4consecutive times, rogers points are almost double of nadals on the rankings

Nadal has an edge over roger only on clay
Besides the man himself said hes gettin used to nadals left handed style
Said 4 him to take him to 5 sets in the last game
Hes definately learnin fast n will beat him the next time

Roger is a god in tennis
Nadal will be, when roger retires

Federer anyday, anytime
He is invincible
Cant wait for the french open n wimbledon (where he is unbeatable; grass)

Rafeal nadal will beat roger federer anytime on clay.
Nadal is d best on clay, while federer is d best on a normal court. Dey both hold records. Nadal has d highest winning streak on clay n federer has d record on a normal court. Wen dy meat on clay its nadal n vice versa

Its a matter of time
Roger will beat nadal even on clay
wait n see

bear in mind that federer has neva won the french open, why

clay has always been his shortcoming,

in april, nadal defeated federer on clay court,

now everyone wants to see them play again in roland garros this june,

but one thing is sure, federer will beat nadal hands down on hard court but on clay, a question mark looms

i knw lordy
but since he took him to 5sets in the last game, he is beatable
almost all the sets were tie breaks

He is gettin used to the clay style n the left hand
he can beat him,only time will tell
Roger said it himself that hes findin it easier now
So i think he will master the clay n win him soon

I hope so anyway
nadal is great on clay

Roger Federer of course is the better out of the two, even though I hate to admit it. He is too dominance in Tennis, so you could see how glad I am each time he is beaten to it.

Bad belle

the only thing on federer's mind now is to win the french open, only then will he see himself as an accomplished tennis player,

a legend, worth reckonin with,

not even NADAL or NALBADIAN can stop him,

He's a force don't u get, that guy is unbeatable, !!!

Federer is the best. the problem is just that people are not too used to Nadal cuz he is a left handed player. he is also a specialist in clay courts.

Roger Federer is the ace of Tennis.
His unflinching nerves is the best thing i have ever seen on TV.
He wld have been an expert if he was a political assassin.

Federer all d way.

@jackal
political assasin?? na wa o, thats really funny
But i agree wth u on his nerves

He is the only one ive seen coming back from 5 love in a set to win 7/5
its unbelievable, only nerves can make u achieve that

I hope he wins the french open to complete his grand slam titles
he needs more than nerves to beat that left handed clay guru sha

Am lookin forward to it
few days to go

Nadal for sure love Fed too

Complete set of grandslams, Check! World number 1 ranking, Check! Nerves of ice to come from 6-2 down in a final tie break, Check! 15 grandslams, Check! Yep, i should think he's better than Nadal.

Nadal, plays good attractive tennis and plays with passion

roger of course!

Federer all d way


Support u guy

Ah Ah Federer is surely the king

roger all the way!!!

That was my position in 2006. How time flies. Federer is sure the best amongst the two, if not the best of all time. No wonder every Tennis player want to meet him at any grand slam final, cos that is when you know your rate as a Tennis player becos Federer always give his best in Grand Slam Finals. Of particular is the 2009 Wimbledon final between Andy Roddick where Federer was stretch to raise his game service wise, At the end of the encounter, Federer served 50 Aces in the longest final game in Wimbledon history.
What is more, he is the only person to win US Open and Wimbledon 5 times in a row, and has reached grand slam final in 25 times

237 Consecutive weeks spent at No. 1, a record. Federer is the first player to reign atop the ATP rankings for four consecutive years from Feb. 2, 2004, through Aug. 18, 2008.
Federer is the only player in history to win 34 or more consecutive matches at two different Grand Slam tournaments (in addition to his Wimbledon streak from '03 through '08.)
11 -- Grand Slam titles won from 2004 through '07, an all-time record for major titles in a four-year span (male or female)
He is simply a genius.

Federer is better

so no nadal fan here only me

One more reason why Federer is better than Nadal, his wife delivered TWIN GIRLS. Future double champions, lol.

Nadal is the better of the two if fit.

davidylan:

Nadal is the better of the two if fit.

finally

you will have to wait till both careers are over to find out cos its a mix of head 2 head showdowns and total titles won. Nadal is still very young and now good on all surfaces but his style of play makes him prone to injury so longevity will play a key role
