Federer: Djokovic more unlucky than Nadal in FO draw

One of the most talked arguments in recent days has been Rafael Nadal falling in Djokovic quarter.

The King of Clay was seeded “only” no.6 and he was unlucky to possible face Nole early… no … actually, according to Federer, Djokovic would be the one that will be affected the most.

Roger commented “The rankings reflect what happened the last 12 months. Of course if Rafa wouldn’t have been injured, from Wimbledon last year or French Open last year—I don’t remember when he played his last, but—you know, he would be very close to the Top 4. If not in the Top 4, maybe No. 1 or 2 in the world. Who knows? So from that standpoint I see the argument [Rafa’s seeding], but at the same time I think it was going to be worse for somebody else other than Rafa. I don’t think it was going to be bad for Rafa because he’s looking at defending his title whoever he has to play through.

It’s going to affect Novak more in my opinion in that regard than Rafa really.”
