So, yeah, how about we just call that one even?


I mean Nadal didn't play a single top 20 player in his run to the US open title last year. Has that ever been done before?

I do agree that Fed got a real easy draw until the finals. His draw on paper at the beginning looked next to impossible. But everyone one of those threats got knocked off early.

All you can do is beat the people you play against. Not his fault if the other top players don't make it to that round for one reason or another.

You can definitely say it was easier, but for anyone to argue it diminishes the title at all is ridiculous to me.
