    Oops. I guess its because the Australian isn't important. :p

    Haven't been watching as much Tennis this year. He was clearly beating Federer on every surface though until his knees really started getting worse.

    Hey, don't talking about David Andersen that way! :D


    I wouldn't say clearly better on every surface other than clay, where he may already be the GOAT.

    What he did show is the ability to adjust his game enough to be elite on other surfaces.

    He likely won't have the longevity of some players because of his style of play but the fact is he is still likely to improve based on his age.

    Remeber, Nadal had 5 majors under his belt at the same point in his career that Federer had 1 and was just breaking through.

    You haven't been watching Del Potro this year. He may never win another major but he's no Chang, either.
