第三次對決
This Sunday is French Open, again it is Roger Federer vs. Rafel Nadel, facing off for three consecutive years. Federer, 26, is already a 12 Grand Slam winner; two shy of Pete Sampras all time record. It is just a matter of time for Federer to break this record. However, he is still missing the French Open trophy in his collection. It is also a dirty mark in his record to claim as the best of tennis history. Clay court favors physical game, not a strength of Federer. But his skill is so good that he still reached the final without much challenge each of last three years. Too bad every year he met Nadal. Nadal is considerd as the top three in clay court players history. He has never lost a match in French during his career. This year, it is unlikely that Federer can beat Nadal. 真係應了一句說話: 既生瑜, 何生亮。
Nadal destroyed Federer with 6-1, 6-3, 6-0. Federer tried various tactics, had some brilliant shot but even more unforced errors. Nadal didn’t drop a set in this tournament and have won four French Open in a roll. Definitely the king on clay.
