PARIS: Short of booting him in the shins at a change of ends, Roger Federer has used just about everything in his vast armoury to try and beat Rafael Nadal at the French Open - so he will need something different when they meet on the Parisian clay for the first time in eight years on Friday.
Federer said he must be"fearless" but what can he do to win three sets against the king of clay when in their previous French Open duels he has never won two? Wilander believes Federer will adopt tactics Pete Sampras used to employ and play the match on his terms. "Maybe out of necessity he's adopted these tactics which we all thought he should have adopted some time ago, but didn't because he was winning everything anyway."
