Wow! What a match. Hats off to the two champions. I was exhausted after watching such an incredible performance from both players who are simply by far the best in this age. Both are a class apart - Federer did not drop a single set on his way to the Final where as Nadal dropped only 1.
A five setter with some breath taking shots from both players left all of us, the viewers, on the edge of our seats. At one point, Federer was down 2 sets and 2-5 in the tiereaker but he came back to win that set and the next one. In the final set, under fading light, Federer finally gave up - the match, the fight and the crown - to Rafa Nadal.
I'll never forget the Federer's back hand at Advantage-Nadal, Final Set, 7-8. It was magnificient but not enough to stop Rafa Nadal from winning the championship. Both were equally majestic and graceful in victory and defeat acknowledging each other's tennis. A magnificient performane - On and off the court
This Wimbledon can be truly considered a Gentleman's game!
