Rafael Nadal Is the New Roger Federer

It’s time to say it. Rafael Nadal is the new Roger Federer. Sure, Nadal was No. 1 before, for almost a year in 2008. But he was laboring and battling, and Federer was in top form as well, so it didn’t really feel permanent. Now it does. Nadal is No. 1 again, and this time it doesn’t look like he will let go again. He’s 24 years old, and in many ways better than he was in 2008....

Roger Federer’s Career: Picking the Bones

I could not help but notice the buzzards circling and swooping down on the scarred lawns of Centre Court as the media began to pick apart the skin and sinew of Roger Federer’s career.  Eulogies sprayed the airwaves after Federer lost to Tomas Berdych in the quarterfinals.
