    Second time in a row lost to Nadal in the final of the French Open.

    Federer converted just 1 of 17 break points, while Nadal converted 4 of 6. I personally believe this was the main reason Feder lost in 4 sets.

    The question stands - Will Federer ever win Roland Garros? Will Nadal ever lose on the Philippe Chatrier court?

    i dont understand why federer is so sluggish on clay, all his forehands were crossing over the lines though his placements were good.

    When you have 19 break points and don't convert your gonna lose now matter how good you are . You are bound to face pressure on your own serve if you cannot convert any of your break points. Plus to add to his misery his service let him down. Damn I was so disappointed anyways he going to win it next time. He gave the match gift wrapped to Rafa when he should have won it in 3. Its not going to happen again thats for sure. Hope he wins Wimbledon and the US.
