Federer and Nadal disagree about the surface of the World Tour Finals

Another little….little disagreement between two of the greatest players in tennis history.

In this case the controversy is about the surface of the World Tour Finals as for Rafa the surface has to be changed every year… Not for Roger

Rafa

“I know it’s not going to happen for my generation. I’m talking for the future generations, something that will be a little bit fairer for the players. And I think for the fans it will be interesting to change the surface every year to the surfaces we qualified on for the World Tour Finals.

“A good player has a chance to qualify for the World Tour Finals four or five times in his career, so if during this four years you have a different surface every year, a minimum one time he will have the chance to play on his favorite surface.” said the world no.1… that would love to play on clay courts (he has never won this title so far).

Roger

The Maestro is definitely not of the same opinion. Federer has participated 12 times to this competition (6 titles). “I believe it should be indoor and hard. I know there’s an argument to have it on clay, on grass, to have it outdoors — and I did play outdoors in Houston.

I just feel indoors doesn’t have enough play. The indoor season is small. I believe indoors deserves a huge event, which this one is.”
