The big Question, can Nadal win? For anyone who has been following Tennis you know that Rafael Nadal has been unstoppable. It looks like no one can stop him. Is the world No. 1 Roger Federer going to loose his spot in the future to Nadal? I wonder who will be best on Grass this time. Roger or Nadal?
LONDON (AP)—Rafael Nadal claimed his first career grass-court title Sunday, defeating Novak Djokovic 7-6 (5), 7-5 in the Queen’s Club final to become the first Spaniard to win on grass in 36 years.
“This week was amazing for me,” Nadal said.
“Wimbledon is (a) very, very important tournament, and the motivation is 100 percent,” Nadal said. “Doesn’t matter if I am tired mentally. Physically is a little bit more important, but I think physically I’m fine.”
Federer, who has won the last five Wimbledon crowns, lost to Djokovic in this year’s Australian Open semifinals. The Swiss earned his fifth title at Halle, Germany, earlier Sunday to extend his streak on grass to 59 wins.
