he was playing at 60% capacity in AO 2012, the backhand was still not there.......he will play close to 80% next year like at the us open recently.......i am giving zero chance to djokovic and others.......rafa 3.0 is basically unbeatable at best of 5 on hardcourts.......

I hope you're right, Start da Game.
This is one of the most interesting Oz's in a long time.
Glad you're keeping up with the countdown CD!
It will be hard for Andy to be in that kind of place mentally, physically, and emotionally at the start of the year, I think, although he may still be a tough out.
I'm hoping Rafa takes it, ties Pete, and chips away at the overall record.
That would be sweet!
