For Tennis fans there may not be more charm than watching Federer-Nadal rivalry. The pair has dominated the scene since the 2005 and the last battle was just few month ago in Roland Garros
final.
But many fans ask the question is Federer-Nadal rivalry over for all times to come? Well, the answer is big ’NO’. Many Tennis pundits have predicted even before the start of 2011 season that Federer may not be able to qualify for more Grand slam finals but against all odds he did not only qualified for the Roland Garros final but also gave a tough fight to Nadal before ousting the Novak Djokovic who only lost once in four Grand Slams.
Federer has more Grand Slams in history than anyone else and this sole factor makes him a special individual even now when he is into his 30s.
Federer still has the ability to win Grand slams in 2012 although he hasn’t won single in 2011 but he will be fresh and mentally stronger in 2012 against all odds. Though Federer didn’t win US Open but he produced a great Semi final against Novak Djokovic.
Federer has repeatedly said that he wants to win a single Olympic gold title which he hasn’t won yet. It will be interesting to see whether he accomplishes this feat or not in London Olympics 2012.

Djokovic beats Nadal in US Open final 2011
World No 1 Novak Djokovic defeated the defending champion and World No 2 Rafaeal Nadal in a four set match that was virtually one sided.
Djokovic with this win accomplished his sixth consecutive win over Nadal in this year and five of them in finals. It was a great year for Djokovic and perhaps never to repeat again in coming years.
It was disappointing to see Nadal being bullied in such a manner by Djokovic whom he defeated just last year in the same final.
Nadal must be thinking of himself being turned into Federer by Djokovic but he would be disappointed he is being cut to size so early in his career just at age of 25.

Can Federer win another Grand Slam in 2011

But the bigger question is whether Federer will be able to win another Grand Slam ?
Its a million dollar question as younger players are making great improvements in their game and with Federer age it is not easy to match the form of 22 and 23 olds.
But Federer is a unique species of players who can do any thing only with his will power and he has proved it time and again in his career.
Coming French open will be his real test at Clay and it will be interesting to see what form he carries with him at French open playing at Madrid open and other ATP tournaments before the French Open.
