I don't think fatigue should be much of a factor. We are talking about the two fittest players on tour.

In the 07 Wimbledon, Nadal played 7 days in a row before meeting Federer in the final and pushing him to 5 sets.

Nadal should be fine

FEBRUARY 01 | 2009
IT WILL BE DIFFICULT

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to say that I will be playing a Grand Slam final again. The first final I will play against Roger in a court other than Wimbledon and Roland Garros.

It’s incredible that after today we would have played together in all the (Grand Slam) finals but one. It will be unreal for me as well because we all know he’s the best tennis player of all time.

This final will be particularly special because it is my first in Melbourne and it will be really hard. I am really excited but somewhat tired from the Friday match against Nando Verdasco. Let’s see how it all turns out.

Thanks you very much to all of you for all the support!

Rafa.

straight from the mouth of the man himself
Title: Re: so the Australian Open started today
Post by: Flannel Boy on January 31, 2009, 10:46:28 PM: Already making excuses.

so sad.

If only the old poster Nadal (what ever happened to him?) was still around; he would never need to create excuses for his favorite player.
Title: Re: so the Australian Open started today
Post by: drew on February 01, 2009, 03:22:27 AM: so the final starts in about 10 minutes, 330 am where i am. i was planning on staying up and watching it but im too tired. ill catch the replay tomorrow
