When Emperor Federer was finally conquered in the Tennis world, a new era called Nadal Vs Federer began. But who predicted the era to live very short?
When Roger Federer dominated the Tennis world as World # 1, it was Rafael Nadal who was constantly meeting him in most finals. There started the Federer Nadal rivalry. It was Federer who was winning most of those encounters except those in Clay, where Nadal was a King. But as days progressed, Nadal expanded his wing to win matches against Federer in all courts and eventually knocked him off from rank 1. And there was Nadal Federer Era.
But every soon a man who was often refereed as a joker of Tennis emerged - Novak Jokovic, who went on to have a transformation and brought an end to Nadal Federer rivalry.
He initially made sure Federer doesn't meet Nadal in finals by knocking out Federer in the Semis and later on began to knock out Nadal in finals. In 2011, he defeated Nadal in 6 finals.
Lately he brought back Nadal Federer rivalry by making them to meet in Semi-Finals rather than Finals, by gaining the world # 1 position as in ATP tournaments if all top seeds are in semis, #1 faces #4 and #2 faces #3.
Early in his career, he was imitating all major tennis players and made his name known to the world. But now, he has made known is name for a different reason, as the one who whipped off Nadal Federer rivalry!
