    Nadal/Ferrer

    Didn't see the match, only the final scoreline. Based on what you saw, did Nadal choke or was Ferrer just that good? Anyone think that Nadal may be vulnerable at Roland Garros?

    ferrer had Nadal @ Duece almost every service game. He had him running back and forth like a pesant! I just think Nadal got physically tired befor ferrer. Nadal was missing easy forehands, which looked like it was due to fatigue. Ferrer seemed like he was on fire to. I don't see nadals level dropping much more than it did today. I'm not sure I see ferrer playing as well as he did today either. Nadal seems like he's slowing down, maybe due to wear and tear. He almost lost to andujar earlier in Brazil... I just think physically he's past his tennis prime.

    I think Nadal is slowing down

    Look for him to lose 1 spot this year

    Cannot see him winning 1 major unless Joker hurt
