"It Will Be Tough To Be Number One" Says Nadal

First topic message reminder :

It appears that Nadal is shaking in his shoes now that he knows Djokovic has laid down the gauntlet and intends to fight to the death for the number one position (not literally of course... I hope...) He thinks it will be tough to take the number one from Djokovic in these circumstances.

"I know that my opponent is unbelievable. He's able to not lose many matches during the whole season and it will be very tough to become number one," Nadal said to reporters in Beijing.

Never trust Indian newspapers.

Anyway good to see Djoker dethroned.

Ha ha! Danny_ . This made me smile. How exactly did you think I intended to make this thread evolve? As it is I think it evolved fine...

I doubt you were expecting Rocky analogies featuring Rafa and Roger!

It has tickled me this thread. I wish more if them were as light hearted as some of the comments. Taken in good spirits by Rafa fans too.
