[quote=CANADAGUY,306036]It's an interesting proposition Kevin. I assume you mean 'what if Federer and Nadal play doubles *as a team*?' Although I'm sure they would play great matches together as a team, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't win doubles championship titles. The reason is really simple. It takes a different set of skills to succeed at doubles compared to singles. Key skills for playing well in doubles include: - lightening fast reflexes - excellent volleying technique - excellent touch at the net Although Federer and Nadal are both very quick around the court and have excellent ground strokes, their net game is not up to the standards of the best doubles players in the game. Also their reflexes aren't as sharp as the best doubles players. They are playing doubles in Toronto this week (not as partners). It will be interesting to see how far they get.[/quote]
