Federer has played Djokovic, Nadal, Murray, and Wawrinka at every major, except for:

* FED vs. Nadal USO
* FED vs. Murray French Open.

How would a Federer vs. Murray French Open match go, this year (if Murray was healthy)?

Fed would win. His form is better now than he was 2 years ago. He is just older and slower so one does not notice as much.

Thanks. I think it would be an interesting match, especially since they've only played on clay once, back in 2008, when Murray on in a tight 7 - 5 3rd set.

Assuming Murray gets back to where he was it might be close but that is a big if. Agassi managed to with intense training but Guga never really recovered from his surgery. Its a crap shoot with hips.

What year did Guga injure his hips?

Late 2004. Never won another major after that. Although he did win 1 in doubles a few years later.


Thanks. I was wondering why I suddenly stopped seeing him do well at the FO.
