Nadal & Federer to meet on 1/2 Clay, 1/2 Grass Court (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18418251/)

This might actually get me to watch highlights of a tennis match. I find it sort of exciting, especially for men's tennis.

Although, it would be much more interesting if it was in quarters.

Watching Nadal and Federer play anywhere, on any surface, is exciting, motivating.
Clay has such a slower bounce, yet Nadal absolutely crushes the ball and create craters on dust.
Federer is a tennis machine -even when he loses a game (which is rare), it's poetic to see..
I'm a happy girl. This match will be fun.

I once read someone call this half-clay, half-grass court a CLASS court. Funniest thing I ever read. Kudos to him.

That's funny. I've heard it described as a "GLASS" surface, which could make this a rather tentative game. And gruesome.




If McEnroe were still playing, it might be a CRASS court.

The finals was one of the best matches ever. A real treat for Tennis fans. These guys
were playing on their own other level. And they are both so young. We can look forward
to many years of stellar tennis from these guys.
The only one who could possibly bear either of them is Serena Williams who is bigger and stronger than either of them.

I watched it. Great match but almost a disappointment after Wimbledon.

And Federer isn't that young. At least in male tennis years, he should be hitting the wall soon.
