Roger Federer VS Rafael Nadal Australian Open 2017 Preview:               The Match that will predict who is the greatest player of all time (GOAT) ?? Probably Yes! Its been more that 5 years since Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal faced off in a grand slam final ! The last time they played each other at a grand slam final was at the French Open 2011, which off course Nadal won. Now a whole lot of things have changed.

We saw vintage Nadal on display. His next assignment is Gael Monfils, which probably Nadal will win.             But the real test is against Milos Raonic, if Raonic overcomes the challenge from Robert Batista Agut, which is very likely.         My prediction is that Milos will beat Rafael Nadal. 2) Roger Federer:          We saw The comeback of Roger Federer against Thomas Berdych, which was phe
