He's 24 now, Nadal is 20.
When Fed is 26, Nadal will be 22. I'm sure Fed will be fantastic still at 26.
But when Fed is 28, when most tennis players go 'off' Nadal will be Fed's age 24.
For me personally i don't think Age will make any difference to Fed. Sampras was old and he never lost many matches.
But when Fed is 29-30, and Nadal 25-26, i think Nadal will be world no.1, as that age gap is more pronounced? Unless a Richard Gasquet or some other good talent comes good (i doubt it very much!!)
just a thought.
