Is Roger Federer capable of winning a 21st Grand Slam, at 39? After several months without competition? Former Australian doubles specialist Todd Woodbridge believes the Swiss still have the qualities. On the other hand, he doubts his physical capacities.

The Australian would welcome Nadal and Federer to end their careers with the same number of Grand Slams: “I don’t really expect Rafa to retire, but there would be something special if they ended up with the same number of Grand Slams. I think it would be a testament to the incredible rivalry between him and Roger, that one of the two is not considered better than the other ”
