amazing match... you can't feel too sorry for Federer though, he hadn't lost since 2002 after all

Interesting to see Nadal blow the tie break at 5-2. You could see him taking extra time and messing it up.
Very much like pool when you spend too long on a shot and miss it rather than playing it at your usual speed. Even Federer commented on it. But what a thriller it was!

The greatest tennis match of our generation and I missed it (Who organises a wedding on Wimbledon Men's Singles Finals day?  ) Was sat in my dads car in the car park for most of the day listening to it on the radio (which s.ucks compared to TV btw). Nadal proves he's a contender on all surfaces...roll on the US hard court season...
