Nadal would have been slaughtered like a wedgie-afflicted calf at any Wimbledon of the high Sampras era.4 Which doesn't mean I was wrong to say that Rafa's got greatest-of-all-time potential; after all, Pete Sampras might not have won seven Wimbledons in Nadal's slow-grass era. But isn't it a wrinkle that at least belongs in the conversation?

My friend Toby, who's the most obsessive tennis fan I know (and who cultivates a luxuriant bitterness toward Nadal, if that's relevant), started sending me videos of fast-court tennis from the '90s and asking if I thought Rafa could win majors under similar conditions.

had me . That is like half the posters over on Tennis Warehouse forums.
