CAMELOT FANTASIES

Hello everyone,

Looks like the time off and hard pre-season training paid off for Mr. Federer. 

6 months out and he didn't forget how to play tennis.  Roger is in the Australian Open Final at 35 1/2 years old.

Congrats to him and his fans for making it so far in the tournament.

Now he awaits Dynamitrov and Clay Warrior King.

Who is going to snatch it?

Rafa has looked much better, his forehand better, more fit.  But his return is still worrisome and positioning a bit erratic.
Dynamitrov seem much improved under Vallverdu, Murray's old coach prior to Mauresmo.
He has looked solid all tournament, but of course benefited from Novak's exit.

I think Rafa takes in 4 sets to set up a huge match with Federer in the Final.
If Rafa would win the final, he would get his 15th major, 2 behind the Swiss Assassin, with Roland Garros and La Decima on the doorstep.
If Roger would take it, he would extend his lead with 18.  He's had 3 chances to do it 2014-2015, but was stopped by Djokovic.

Good luck and health to all the players remaining.

Respectfully,
masterclass
