Round 1

Thank you for accepting my challenge, Alanwang123.
Now, this is my argument:

Rafael Nadal is definitely better than Roger Federer. 
1. Nadal is younger and can move faster than Federer.
2. Nadal is better trained than Federer and has a better coach, in my opinion.
3. Nadal has a better serve than Federer and can ace him.
4. Nadal is better at directing the ball than Federer.
Conclusion: Nadal can beat Federer with these advantages, provided he does not have any injuries, making him a better tennis player.

Hello, Joshua_Stebold. Now, what you've said is quite true. Nadal does have some advantages. However, the main reason Nadal is losing current matches is because he get's injured way too easily. Federer has less chance in injury, making it easier to beat Nadal.

Over to you :)

I am fully aware of what you just mentioned. However, we are debating which tennis player has better skill. That is definitely Nadal.
