You do know he's already won it once, right?

You act like this is the first hard court tourney he's ever won... and only got their by luck.

Historically, clay court guys NEVER transition to the hard court because they don't serve big enough and rely too much on ball movement. The fact that Rafa was able to morph his game to winning both hard court Majors in 3 years time is pretty phenomenal.

Yes, I am well aware that he's won it before. I meant that I'll be interested to see if he can maintain this same level of play on hards, because this is by far his best hard court tennis. He's never consistently beaten guys like Murray, Djoko, Delpo (who will be back and ready to go by then). And the year he won the AO he dodged all of them. I'd like to see how he'd handle a Delpo/Murray/Fed or Djoko quarters/semis/final draw.
