For the first time in history this year Nadal's fan base as gone above Roger Federer.

As of Aug 29th 2014, Facebooks likes are as follows

1]Rafa Nadal -14,586,067
2]Roger Federer -14,485,122
3]Novak Djokovic - 5,194,729
4]Andy Murray - 2,804,336
5]Del Potro - 1,608,837
6]Jo WilFred Tsonga - 649,313

rest are way behind.

Congrats Rafa for getting the biggest fan base of all Tennis players. Hug

I am not sure if Facebook should be the absolute judge of everything. I propose we add Facebook likes to the amount of retweets they have plus fan mail count and decibel count the next time they come on court, that should be pretty definitive.

I think the number of hardcore fans - the type that really care and are upset when the player loses and really, really want him to win could be higher for Nadal. But I think if you add in casual admirers I think Federer would have more. Certainly, he seems to lead in crowd support around the world.

The second category I might call not fans but "appreciators".

I guess what's more striking than anything from the list quoted by IC is the size of the gap between the top two and then everyone else from number 3 downwards. It really is a case of Fedal, plus the also-rans.

But then this is FB we're talking about. I somehow doubt that Djokovic, Murray or any of the others will be losing sleep ....

I'm not on Facebook, but aren't likes just a response to content posted? In which case, if you post more, you get more likes?

So is that 14 million different fans or could it be a million fans who have 'liked' 14 times?

Murdoch - No on Facebook, you can only like a status once. But you can like more than one fanpage. So one person can like fifty fan page, but one can't like one fan page fifty times. Nadal Federer is pretty close, and with some people having multi accounts, it could even be the other way round. Day light between the big two and the rest though. Daylight between Ronaldo, Messi and these two though.

Always difficult to quantify precisely any variation in levels of 'crowd support'. Decibel meter readings ....?? An exact count of seat occupancy ratio per match ...? (hmm....certain complications there when they play each other ....Wink )

But it IS true that we hear constant reference by pundits, commentators and by tournament organisers as regards the Federer effect at stadia around the world. And sometimes by players too. This from the BBC website listing 'Quotes of the Day' from yesterday's USO proceedings :

" I was trying not to get caught up in the whole Roger act out there. You walk out, you get a few cheers. He walks out and the crowd goes ballistic."
Sam Groth on facing five-time champion Roger Federer.

I suspect a lot of Federer's older fans don't bother with facebook. We all know Nadal only has female fans and a bunch of kids - facebook demographic right there.

Judging by reception and crowd support Federer is numero uno by a long distance.

On Twitter, Federer is behind both Nadal AND Djokovic in followers.

I don't read much into it. Federer is still the most popular player by some distance.

the twitter one does come with the caveat the Federer joined a lot later, joined about a year ago..Probably my verified favorite tennis account.

On a separate note. I think you can read quite a bit into social media imprint. 1 in ten Facebook accounts follow Cristiano Ronaldo. Which is probably a fair representation of his popularity. I'd definitely go with Federer being more popular than his social media suggests, but it does take a leap to suggest all federer fans are off Facebook, and only fangirls and kids follow Nadal.... but I have come to expect such lowest common denominator stuff around here.

It's not such a surprise that there is hardly a hairs breadth between them in terms of facebook fans. They are the same weight, height, wear the same clothes and headband, play with the same controlled game face and will leave the game with a similar number of slam titles. I reckon it would be fun if they ended with exactly the same number of slams. Maybe in the future it will be difficult to tell them apart. Wasn't it Federer who liked to place his water bottles carefully and did Rafa end up with two sets of twins Headscratch Laugh

However they do tend to attract different sorts of fans... There is a vocal minority of Federer fan's who are so worried about their favorite and so threatened by his biggest rival Nadal that they feel obliged to dismiss anything to do with him. His game, his titles, his interviews, his ability with languages, his habits and even his fans. But, but, but, but..... please make him go away

True - those fans are a bit loopy. They remind of some Rafa fans in their almost obsessive devotion. Do they remind you of anyone hawkeye?

Nah! It tends to be Federer fans who dismiss Nadal and not the other way round.  See exhibit A... a perfect example posted seconds after my description  Laugh

The worst you get from a Nadal fan is perhaps calling Fed "smug" which he is perfectly entitled to be  king

Maybe, but it tends to be some Rafa fans who go on and on and on about if this and if that, as though they have an alternate universe they need to live in - they seem to be so insecure in their hero's achievements for some bizarre reason Laugh

Those types of Fed/Rafa fans are very much mirror images of each other.

Really ? I doubt you actually believe that hawkeye  - but if you do, I'd say you're seriously deluded.

Check out inane reader comments some time on the ATP website FB pages (pre/post match 'discussions')

You'll see stuff there from the other camp too of course, and as JHM said above, the worst of them (many seemingly without any formal education since around the age of 8 IMO... Rolling Eyes ) tend to mirror each other.

I don't quite agree with you, the author of this thread is no Nadal fan [eventhough I like Nadal as a person] and certainly likes Federer and I wrote the article to highlight whats Nadal's importance in ATP tour.

It is true the Djokovic fans are dwarfed by the mountain of FeDal fan's but like their idol they do rather make up for it in the noise they make. I half expect them to break out in a dance, do a comic turn or maybe even an impression just to let the world know that they are there Wink

Djokovic is clearly in panic mode. Every time he thinks he's done something worthy on the tennis court he looks in the mirror and demands "Who is the fairest of them all" but whatever he does the same answer comes back...

What about a cute baby? Dam it some people can produce 2...

One thing Djoko really must stop (with immediate effect) is the silly dancing.

The excuse that "I only do it because they ask me to" might be okay when you're twelve years old, and your schoolmates wanna have a laugh. He's 27.

I've re-read the comment twice and, yes, it really does seem that Hawkeye thinks Federer fathering twins is a greater achievement than Djokovic fathering a single baby.

...and Nole fans (of which we only have one remaining here - HMM) are far more aching to make noise and be visible than Fedal fans (of which we also have a prime example here)...

HM Murdoch. I have to admit I did chuckle a bit when Federer announced the arrival of his and Mirka's twins just after Djokovic announced his impending fatherhood Very Happy I'm sure he and Jelena will make great parents but as far as being newsworthy I do think a second set of twins beats a single baby.

Anyway Djokovic has come up with another way to boost his popularity. What did you think of Djokovic's press conference? I hope Federer doesn't get any ideas. Can you imagine? He wouldn't have to get a random small girl to sing. He has two cute girls of his own that could do the work. I wonder if they can dance too? Laugh

I don't know the background to the girl singing. I'm assuming it must be a fan or a competition winner or something? It's a bit odd but it didn't really bother me.

The dancing though, is excruciating. It's embarrassing that he's being asked but, as Lags said, he needs to say no to it.

Rearing a second set of twins is remarkable... I can only hope my reproductive system is not that efficient when my time to sire an heir comes

A mans reproductive system can produce a few million kids every go. It's the woman who brings it all down to small numbers.
