Even while I was watching the match, sometime in the 4th set, I had a feeling I was watching history. That I am lucky to have watched LIVE a match will people will talk about for a very long time. I simply cannot remember having seen any contest more thrilling than this.

every generation seems to be fortunate enough to have that one defining match and this one was certainly the one from the class lead by Federer – Nadal.

cheers!

Comparisons with Borg-McEnroe 1980 final are inevitable. I was only as tall as a tennis racket then :-)
As someone from the FedExpress camp, I am waiting for the revenge!

My eyes were glued to this marathon for 4 hours and 48 minutes! This was the greatest and perhaps the best quality tennis I have ever witnessed in any tournament. Congrats to Nadal for taking down the great Federer.
