Come on now not everyone has to be as nice as you, you can be a little gloaty, as long you don't go to far like I did, with that list. busted was making fun of nadal
No one has to be especially nice. I think we've established that here. All I'm saying is, if you give it out, expect it back, and don't pout when people come after you. Busted can be a total pain in the ass to Nadal fans, I'll give you that. But she takes on the chin what she gives. If I called you out for gloating, that's one Nadal fan to another. I'd be interested to know when you think I have gloated, as much as it matters. Bottom line is, imho, if you make bold statements, expect push-back. Stick your chin out and defend them. This is a discussion board, which means it's an argument board. We scrape and bruise each other, a bit. But we're a pretty good community. Most around here brush it off and keep going. If you can find a less-trollish tennis board, with more interesting conversation, do take yourself there. I don't think there is one. Otherwise, brace yourself, try to be fair, and have a good time.

Front.. if you are being transparent..So Rafa should skip Wimbledon so he doesn’t gets injured.. Correct
That idea has been floated. Wait until Rafa wins RG again and see if he decides it's not worth playing grass. Not impossible.

OK fair enough, understand, that you are telling me, I agree this is a great forum, But gloaty or not Nadal back to number one is great news.

That undeserving cunt won't stay there for long if there is any justice. The tour has been GREAT this year so far :) how you guys like that gloating?

Well why skip RG? Fed is fresh for RG?

He's said for two years now that his knees feel weird when he practices on clay ever since his knee surgery following 2016 AO. At this point it's probably best to take him at his word. Given the state of the tour, including Rafa, if he wasn't worried about his health I think he'd play RG and probably Rome.

Nadal will be number one, until at least Wimbledon, nobody going to beat Nadal on clay, and as for gloating, I have only said federer got show up by my home boy kokk.

I could mention the growing number of journeymen that have ridden the town bike at Wimbledon (Nadal) but the list is starting to get gloriously long.

How about "you're a sore loser and a bit of a cunt yourself, and I'm sorry for defending your guy." You like that? :p (I actually suspect you will. Sometimes a blunt object - your head - has to be hit with a blunt instrument - my rudeness, in this case.)

Dude you being sore loser, just because, Nadal sucked at Wimbledon since 12 does not mean he's going to suck this year.

Federer skipping RG again this year, I think if that I just read is right, not sure that's a good choice, but the way he's been playing maybe it is.

What makes you so sure that he will be number until Wimbledon? He has so many points to defend, and you better hope that he will be fit enough to defend all those points. I know he is a clay court specialist, but he can be upended if he is not close to full fitness. As you know, he relies on fitness to play his best tennis.
