Imagine this draw:

Djokovic
Nadal

Federer
XXX


XXX
Ferrer

XXX
Murray

Nole would beat Rafa and Roger to reach final. In the other half, Pics would beat Muzz, so it'd be Nole-Pics final. :zzz:

Why Del Potro in the poll ? He's not better than Ferrer, Tsonga and Berdych.
You cannot be serious :facepalm:

On topic, Djokovic. Will have to wait and see in what shape Nadal comes back to pass judgement on him, if he's in good shape of course he must be the favorite.

too early to tell, let's see how nadal will turn out to be.
people easily discounting murray and fed. although murray does not have spectacular results on clay, i expect him to improve significantly this year. his chances are, like federer's, rather sensitive to nadal's fitness and the side of the draw nadal lands in. djoko's too, but to a lesser degree.

Has to be Nole at this point. I don't know how people can say Nadal is a favourite when he hasn't played in 8 months, who knows what his condition will be when he returns.

If those odds are correct, 15-1 for Rog isn't bad at all for a small stake.

Roger, of course.....best there ever was- best there is. Regardless of the Haters, the dude is flat out amazing to watch... to perform at that level for as long as he has is crazy. His generation has moved on and he's still at the top with the young guns.
WORD !

Fed don't take no prisoners.

Nadal... The guy owns that tournament. Even Djokovic in super mode can't match him for some reason. I hate to say it, but the only way Nole can beat Nadal at RG is if they meet earlier than final, Nadal is below 90% of his skills and Djokovic is in the super mode!
