And you base this on...
No, sorry, silly me. Of *course you have no evidence for this... thought, maybe, loosely speaking? We knew that. Carry on.

And that is why he won several Masters on clay, right? His game on clay is just fine. The question rather is whether he has enough patience and stamina for 7 best-of-five matches on clay.

There is ample evidence of this. You choose to ignore it.
Of *course* there is, of course...
Could you give us a preview of your general posting themes *if* Federer (against all... evidence, is it?) were to win at Roland Garros?

Didn't he *state* the French was a priority this year?
He did and also mentioned the #1 ranking as a special goal but remember that Whisper has a very selective memory. E.g. ask him about the number of slams Federer would win.. He also keeps forgetting about the houses he owes a few people here when he lost a number of bets.

i suspect fed will give a very good effort at this yr's FO..but i don't see him winning it..his game is not ideally suited to clay..
if he loses it, he might be in for a long yr..if he wins it, i don't think he'll ever win it again nor give much effort for it, and probably continue to keep high confidence and win Ws and USOs, with AOs also..
How much emphasis should Federer put on this title? He shouldn't be too obssessed over the RG, IMO.
He is doing a good job deflecting pressure and hype, judging from his interviews. He will not let the media get him too much into comparisons. It's good to not let others dictate how your career should go. Fed's only interested in being the best he can be.

he's interested in being said in the same breath as sampras. don't doubt it for a minute.
