    I'd say so.

    He can still probably play on ala Lleyton Hewitt but never at a the level he was once at.

    Slams bar French are gone for him and with Djokovic and to a bigger extent Murray and Federer being a little awesome, even the French isn't a gimme as it once was

    It would take Nadal until 2015 to pass Federer's Slam total and that's assuming he wins every single one from now on.

    Don't think he's going to pass it tbf.

    Fed.

    Finished for the second half of the season, yeah. Grass/faster hard courts/indoors is going to do him no favours with having to manage his knee so tightly.

    Nadal was never a threat to Federer's record IMO.

    Murray is

    Murray.

    Nah, his body will break down from the stress his training puts on it too. He's not going to win at Roland Garros, so that means it would take him about five years to equal it by which time he would be...31.

    If he does it, I'll resign as mod and reinstate BOBN as my replacement.

    Rafael Nadal on his defeat to Steve Darcis: "There were not a lot of good things for me. I tried my best all the time I had my chances but I did not make it. It is difficult to adapt your game on grass. Now is not the right time to talk about my knee. The only thing I can do is congratulate my opponent. It is not a tragedy, I lost, it is sport."

    "I'm confident that I will recover and be ready for the next tournaments. I have played far more than I expected after my injury and I will try my best for the next couple of years."
    He's gone

    Also he didn't use the knee as an excuse
