It's hard to say. If he continues at the rate he goes, than yes, he will. Like, think about it. It's very likely that, by the end of this year, he will overtake Agassi (unfortunately) for most Grand Slams for current players.

I know I might sound crazy, but barring injury I think Nadal will retire with more slams than Federer. think about it, how old was Federer when he won his first slam? 21. Nadal? 19. Nadal will dominate RG and win (barring injury) at least 5. He will aslo have a great chance at the AO with it's slow rebound ace. he will get at least 3 there. he has a great chance for a couple USO. It remains to be seen if he can win Wimbledon. Remember C.Martinez? Who would have thought a clay courter like her could have won Wimby? it's possible.

That's certainly possible...it all depends on how things turn out. I'm not sure how Nadal will do when he loses a step....

I really think Nadal has a better shot at winning Wimbledon with the slowed down sand grass than Federer winning on the Red Clay in the future.

Yes, I agree. And it's not like they're going to speed up the clay or anything.

The only timne Federer will ever win RG will be if Nadal isn't there. Then when he retires he will constantly hear "he wouldn't have won it if Nadal was there"

Nadal winning the French Open 5 times in a row is very quite possible. He is so dominant on the surface there would have to be someone that comes out and proves themselves big time or he would have to come up with an injury making him miss the event (which I hope would not happen).

Nadal has one more match to break the consective clay court win streak by Vilas. he should have no problem getting that with his first round match this week.
