KING of CLAY

Fourth time round and NADAL just rocks on !!!!


In the early part of the movie “Troy”, Brad Pitt as Achilles strikes down a giant with his sword , and then yells out at the stunned opposing army,

“Is there no one else?”

That scene reminds me of just how good Rafael Nadal is on clay.
And especially so after he just struck down Roger Federer once again in convincing, if not humiliating, fashion 6-1, 6-3, 6-0 to win his fourth straight Roland Garros and all but etch his name as the greatest of clay court player ever.

Instead of the gracious victory speech and the congratulatory processions that followed, I’d rather have seen Nadal make like Achilles, rip the microphone and shout out to the crowd and worldwide TV audience,


“Is there no one else? IS THERE NO ONE ELSE?”


Because at the moment there is no one else. There simply is no one capable of beating Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros. Roger Federer simply isn’t guy. He failed for a fourth straight year today. Novak Djokovic tried and he too, failed


If I had to construct a player to beat Rafa on clay I’d take Novak’s backand, Roddick’s serve, Fed’s forehand and Ferrer’s patience.

We've heard so much about Federer being the grea “How can someone be the greatest if he’s not even close to beating a single guy on one of the most important surfaces at one of the biggest events?”

In the mean time just tip your hat and be in awe of just how damn good Rafa is.



Turn out the lights. The party is over. Nadals’s the greatest on clay.

3 mistakes of my life

Well i just finished reading Chetan Bhagat's new novel ... ' the 3 mistakes of my life'

phew ...wat melodrama !!! Gosh Bhagat somehow managed to knead politics with youth of India , spiced up with terrorism and garnished it with an overdoze of romance ....
Duh' wat utter crap ...


Dude seriously you could consider an alternative carrer as a bollywood story writer or even better an Ekta Kapoor progeny ... success assured !!!

Now his book made me realise something though ....
3 mistakes ....
1. spent 50 bucks to buy the book
2. didnt give my 100% attention to the Nadal Djorkovic match cos i was reading 'this' irratin book
3. so thought the book wud be good ...due you set the standards now live upto them ...

EURO 08

hmmm nw thats definetly gonna be a thriller ...

i hate the darned vtu .. who the fck schedules exam dates to clash bth with the frensh open and euro cup ...sadistic ..
now i couldnt help slightly rejoicing ... yipeeeee no england !!! wat a disgrace to not even qualify :) :) nope no complains !!! * becks probably too busy trying out poshs lingerie to even care :p :p

now thinking of the euro .... i totally put my bets with germany ... the statistics do so too .... pretty unreasonable i say ...

1 . Michael Ballack's no Ronaldo [luv him or hate him u just cant ignore this guy :) ],henry
