Thanks for reminding 2009 & 2012 exactly the two years when he beat Roger at the AO ended up being a miserable year for him. Hope Rafa will be wise this time around!! AO Final is a curse for Rafa!!

This will be nothing to what we could possibly witness in the match if it gets tight (big if though!!).
Looking forward to Rafa's usage of everything available strategywise!! Uncle Toni is the best ever in that department!!

That blister business is a little more insidious. IF Rafa does somehow manage to lose, it will always be a blistered Nadal losing to Fed, not full strength Nadal (never mind Fed's age). If he wins, of course, it will be heroic and one for the ages. Remember, every time Nadal suffered an unexpected defeat at the slams, it was basically an injury-sparked fluke (see Soderling/Rosol). Sampras was fond of doing this too in the 90s, to the point where Rafter lashed out at him after beating him in US Open. Playing up the injury cheapens the competition, sorry.

If Federer continue coming forward and volley / forehand / drop the ball (typical Stefan Edberg signature), that would shake Nadal's balance and make him distracted. I am sure Federer comes up with more strategies today and make a tough fight (as he did in the past). Federer has to be on target right from the beginning as Nadal takes time to get into the game. That would stretch the game into minimum 4 sets. Strictly no double faults and every Serve is very important. Grigor Dimitrov could sustain majorly because of this consistency on Serve. I am sure Federer's serve is the key for today's match. All the best. Whoever wins.. I am happy. Coming till Semi final itself a big milestone for both the players. And Federer - Nadal - Djokovic are the supreme talented trio Tennis era ever witnessed.
