If Nadal and Federer both reach the final, it will be very intresting. Nadal is in incredible form...

But grass suits Federer's game so nicely. One handed backhands are very potent, but on clay it is extremely tough, even for Federer or any of the best players with one hand backhands. To suceed on clay with a one hander, you have to be extremely aggressive or else you start to hit balls above your shoulder which is a lot weaker than around your waist. However on grass Federer can play his natural game. It's going to be tough for Nadal to win but he has chance. Unless Federer plays like he did against him in Shanghai 2007. Then it's all over.

Federer does seem much more relaxed this year then in previous years. He wants to win again but knows the significance of what he has already accomplished on grass. Right now anything else is just a bonus. I have a feeling Federer will win it again this year, just a gut feeling. Though I wouldn't be suprised if Nadal managed to nick it.
