63143, clay-court specialists don't win Wimbledon.

Remind me - how many Wimbledon titles (never mind three straight finals) have Thomas Muster (who never even won a fucking MATCH at Wimbledon), Sergi Bruguera, Gustavo Kuerten, Carlos Moya, Gaston Gaudio, Juan Carlos Ferrero etc, have won?

Furthermore, for you to say that he doesn't enjoy the same success on grass makes no sense, even putting his win at Wimbledon aside - the grass court season is three weeks long. How often does he have the chance to play on grass? There's no telling how many grass titles he might have if the season was longer. Both Pete and Roger have 10 grass titles, it just so happens that the majority of them are the most important one to win. 10 titles compared to the number of titles they both have overall is pretty minute.
