It's 6-3 now and not 9-3.
He was referring to head-to-head stats.

The game is now called Tennis
not Lawn tennis. The Lawn has since been removed.
Tennis is now played on various surfaces (hardcourt, clay, grass etc)
For RF, he is a legend, his smooth backhand strokes is still unbeatable in the history of Tennis. His contribution to the development of the game will forever stand.

No,Nadal leads Federer 9-3 in grand slam.
There's been 12 matches between them in the grand slam with 9 being final matches. Nadal leads that too 6-3(what you said).

It is simple, no argument. You want to know the greatest between Roger Federer and Rafeal Nadal? google how many grand slams each of those two great guys have for themselves. RF is fantastic, classic, graceful and does not pushes too hard to the extent of injuring himself.

Oga are ufor real? ?. You obviously don't watch slams other than French Open. Nadal is not even consider among the best 3 of all time but Roger is deemed to be d greatest of all time.
Rafa should be among the best 3 of all time. Dude has 14 Grand Slam titles, same as Pete Sampras which means only Roger has won more Slams than him in the history of tennis. Remember he also won the Olympics gold medal.

It was great seeing the two guys in the Aussie final again.

Roger is definitely the greatest!! When you consider how many final matches he's played, and you realise he could easily have won those matches, then you realise his greatness!!

Nadal definitely knew how to play Federer. If there was no Nadal in those final matches to stop Federer, he would definitely be on atleast 23 grand slams. Just look at the female version of Federer (Serena).

I am not arguing with anybody here.
I said I so much love both of them and it's hard for me to choose my favorite player.
Then I said Nadal leads Federer in head-to-head 9-3 as far as grand slam is concerned and Classickid said it's 6-3.
I'm only reiterating my aforementioned points and clarifying things.
I've been watching Tennis since 2007 and I think I know well enough.
I stand to be corrected though.

Hall of Famer....Federer is Arguably the Best Tennis Player ever Andre Agassi and Sampras would agree with me

There is only one reason for that... 5 of those win are on Nadal favorite surface... Roland Garos. Nadal hardly play in finals in other surface at the peak of their rivalry. Djokovic has a chance of breaking Rogers record if he can concentrate on the game. He is a blend of Roger and Rafa

Nadal at his best have no rival especially on clay. Federer great but Nadal is best if he is inform
Bro, to be the best, you have to be good all round. Of all Nadal's 14 slam titles, 9 came for clay court (Roland Garos). He has 1 Aussie, 2 Wimbledon titles, and 2 US open titles. As for Roger, he has 1 Roland Garos, 7 Wimbledons, 5 Aussies, and 5 U.S open titles. If not for Rafa, Roger would have won more than 4 French Opens.

The greatest is not determined on just on surface. You have to be all round like the Swiss maestro. ROGER that?

Then Federer is not all round. Check the statistics of play against those two great players. Nadal had beaten Federer more no any other surface than Federer had beaten Nadal. Please check. There were times when there is a final between Nadal and Federer, it only resign to fate. It was almost pitiable to see a maestro struggle against one young Spanish using left and spinning the ball better than any other person

Yes, Nadal leads Federer when comparing their previous meetings but that doesn't translate to winning more silerwares than Roger. Maybe he prefers winning Federer to winning trophies. If there's no French Open, Nadal will only be having 5 slams to his name. And wait, are you trying to compare them in terms of who plays a more beautiful tennis? Hahaha...

Have you compare the numbers of years each player have been playing tennishuh? Go watch Nadal again. Each time he loses, you will always have this "how person go play like this come lose" can of feeling. Nadal spins the ball better than any play and his make his opponent lose hope. Actually those who beat him are those who don't care about what Nadal is doing which is amazing. They play themselves the underdog. Federer actually stated he has nothing to lose. He went into that with the Mind set of an underdog. How can he be be greaterhuh
