Tricky Hawes...

Do you really think nadal is just a defensive scrapper?? Some of the shots he played yesterday were superb.. the fact that Djoko couldn't get many clean winners and everything was coming back was down to nadals brilliance on a tennis court! He doesn't just hit them back, he was hitting winners on the run and on the back foot. If he was just a defender federer would be able to beat him on clay... and if he was just a defender he wouldn't be able to take federer to 5 sets on grass (who was the last player to do that?) roddick in feds first final was it? He's got to two wimbledon finals in a row... you need far more to your game then defence to do that!
