I know many experts are claiming that Nadal will have trouble winning a non-clay slam after his showing at the Australian open. I would actually fancy his chances against Djokovic more than Tsonga as Nadal is far more experienced. But people forget how good Nadal is on grass. First, grass is so easy on Nadal’s banged up body, and he can move around the court with less pain and less risk of injury. In addition, he has shown in the past that he is truly the second best player on grass as he almost beat Roger Federer in that amazing final. Finally, as good as Djokovic is on grass, Nadal is much better and his game is actually suited for today’s slower grass courts. So don’t be surprised if Nadal won this year’s or next year’s Wimbledon.
