Battle of the (Slam) Surfaces
What will they think of next?! Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will meet in a few weeks for a match on a very unique tennis court, i.e. one side of the court will be clay and the other side will be grass. It will actually be quite a challenge because moving (and sliding) around a clay court is very different from the footing on a grass court although they both feel soft under foot. This
exhibition match will not settle anything in terms of who is "greater," but the novelty of the match between tennis’s two reigning Roland Garros and Wimbledon champions should generate some positive PR leading up to the two Grand Slam events. Roger and Rafa just better be careful "slip-sliding" around the combo court because we want to see them fighting it out in the French and Wimbledon finals too!
