He appears to be peaking so I'm going to say yes, the FO.

Top half:

Dimitrov def. Djokovic
Gulbis def. Nadal

Bottom half:

Berdych/Tsonga def. Federer

Just to be sure.

Yes, Ferrer is a good player. #saidnooneever

LOL at Moozza bumping this thread. Was bad enough to open it at the first time. Bumping it when we are even more sure that it wont happen (Nadal came back successfully), it's even more pathetic. But then again, watching who opened the thread, this comes as no surprise at all...

He never will, unless he has an exponential amount of luck.

Lol no :facepalm: I really hope this is not a serious thread.

This is far from impossible:

Gulbis df Nadal in rd 4
Wawrinka df Djokovic in QF
Berdych df Federer in QF
Almagro df Gulbis in QF
Almagro df Wawrinka in SF

Ferrer df Tsonga in QF
Ferrer df Berdych in SF
Ferrer df Almagro in F

Agreed. He essentially can't meet Djokovic or Nadal ever (in a slam), and he can't draw Federer on any surface but clay (now, that is; Federer would have easily beaten him on clay too in the past). He can beat Murray on clay, but his chances on the other surfaces against the Scot aren't great. And he can beat anyone else on the tour, especially on clay.

The draw for this Roland Garros is probably the best chance he'll ever get. He can't draw Djokovic until the semis at the earliest, and he can't draw Nadal until the final, so they'll be facing more quality opponents before they theoretically meet Ferrer. If Djokovic and Nadal go out relatively early (not unthinkable given their respective forms this year), his odds go up substantially.

He will win the same number of slams this year as Berdych/Tsonga/Delpo. aka, none.

Lol at the haters getting all worried :lol:

Ferrer could get a really good draw here and easily reach the final.
Lol no.

No way he is winning a slam ever.Sorry.
No way everyone capable of beating him gets early exit.
Too many superior ones.

Where have you all been for the last 2 years?

You make it sound like Ferrer is some mug. He is not. This guy only loses to top 4 players at slams these days, it's a safe bet he'll be there well into the second week.

And he will continue to lose to them. Hence, no final, let alone a slam.
