Federer has to add something to his game to keep close to Nadal. I think he will, but that said age is on Rafa's side. It would have been interesting to see Nadal versus Sampras at his best in the Open.
I think it would be more interesting if Nadal played Sampras with them both in their prime on grass at centre court at a Wimbledon final. Sampras won Wimbledon 7 times Nadal has one it twice and power is more important on grass.

Wimbledon or the Open would be good as Pete won five times in New York
Keep in mind that the courts are not as fast as they were in Pete's heyday. So a hypothetical match-up playing on today's center court would probably favor Rafa.

Keep in mind that the courts today are playing a little slower than during Pete's heyday. My guess is that Rafa would have a slight edge if a hypothetical match-up were to take place on today's center court.
