as far as the winner of federer-djokovic "destroying" nadal. well this is just laughable. it "could" happen, you never know in tennis. but the odds are definitly against it. nadal leads the head to head against djokovic 6-2 (2-2 on hard) and 8-6 against federer (3-2 federer on hard). federer would be the favorite against nadal course it´s hardcourt, but if nadal brings at least his B game no one on the tour is destroying him, he´s way to strong mentaly.
beating federer on hard in a non major and beating federer on hard in a major are too entirely different enitities. In a major nadal has never beaten fed anywhere but the french and again he likely never will(though it is possible he could beat him at wimbledon) Federer is quite simply the best major tennis player ever and no one is particularly close.

And who was in his draw doesnt really matter if he doesnt have to play them. Speaking of draws why does tennis put 1 and 3 on the same half of the draw? every other sport puts 1 and 4.
