TENNIS - WIMBELDON FINAL. RAFAEL NADAL: SO CLOSE YET SO FAR

World Nº1 ROGER FEDERER equalled Bjorn Borg´s 5 straight
Wimbledon men´s title wins, by defeating Spaniard & World Nº2
RAFAEL NADAL in 5 tough sets : 7-6, 4-6, 7-6, 2-6, 6-2.














Federer was emotional with his win, as apart in gainning his 5th straight
title, Nadal had made the effort very tough. Rafael Nadal had
put Federer on the ropes many times, but unforced mistakes & Federer´s
determination pulled him through. Nadal injuried his knee in the 4th
set, but it was´nt an excuse & he continued to try his best without putting
that fact in question.



















The Spaniard lost for the second consecutive time in the final & against
the same person & most will agree that the French Open winner &
the best player in the World on clay, is destined to win Wimbeldon in the
near future. His game on grass has improved dramatically & he nearly
pulled off the upset today.

Congratulations to both players, Federer was the better player today.

Could be. I as a Spaniard was on Rafa´s side. But history will forget that Rafa played so well & only remember that Federer won & won his 5 th title in a row.

Thats sport, in modern times!

Thanks for your comments & hope to see you back
Cheers

but atleast this will shut those mouths who said rafa cant play in grass.... i still doubt whether fed will win french but iam damn confident that nadal will win in wimbledon and all the grandslams... he has his age at his back...
but nadal on the whole was better than fed this yr!
he won comfortably in french and gave fed un for his money today... and was that injury a reason?... even if it is not it gave fed time to come back physically and mentally!
