And I agree Federer is third on clay. Yes, better than Lendle, Vilas, and Kuerten. He has just the terrible luck to play at the same time as the GOAT of clay.


Not better than Kuerten. See 2004 French Open.

So because he lost once in a slam on clay to Kuerten , he is not better? By that logic, I'll assume you'll agree that Ferrer is a better hard court player than Nadal (See 2007 US Open and 2011 Australian Open).

You can argue that Kuerten is a better clay court player because he won 3 French Opens vs. Federer's 1 (I would still disagree). But pointing to one matchup is just silly.
