First off, I'm no Nadal fan - never really became a fan of either, actually. But their being different ages doesn't mean you can't compare them. It just means you have to be wary of context. But 10-21, given their age differences, means two things: First, that Federer couldn't beat Nadal when he was at his peak, and that Federer couldn't beat Nadal when Nadal was at his peak.

And Inglewood Jack - two thirds of their meetings were in Finals, so I'm not sure what you are getting at
