It was legendary, the match. Reminded me of Stefan and Boris's classics. And I hope, really hope we have 3 in a row next year. The last time that I really felt privileged was while watching the Rafter v/s Goran in the finals. That too was phenomenal.
I think Rafa almost had Roger. The way he won the fourth set, and the way Roger lost it questioning the Hawk eye, unbelievable. I have never seen Roger so frustrated. I thought Roger didn't have that emotion within himself. He demeanors oncourt are so pristine.
And then in the fifth Roger proved why he is regarded as one of the greatest player of my time. He held on to his serve twice and then he broke Rafa. How very often, in Men’s tennis, Championships are decided on one single game. This was one such occasion. Though I so badly wanted Rafa to win this one, I cannot, but bow to the greatness of Roger, his class, his tennis on grass.
Well done Roger, you deserved it. And Rafa, I hope you can beat him next year!
