Anyone watching the final? Great game, Nadal has been dominating, but Federer just broke him after Nadal had set point. Nadal looks tired now.

Yeah Nadal won 7 games on the trot or something like that, faltered for a bit, but just played an amazing forehand in the tiebreak.

Nadal needs to finish this off, I have a flight in 3 hours and need to pack, but am too engrossed in this game!

It's sad to see Federer losing his grip a tiny bit. The guys been in the spotlight of tennis for years and now he's not the boss he used to be. I guess everyone has a high point. To me Nadal has always been "the enemy" since he first started playing. Good luck Roger but rafael has this one.

Fed looking strong again, Nadal better sort his shit out, otherwise I am never going to make it to Buenos Aires.

What a great match! With the recent spotlight being solidly on Djokovic it was nice to see the two heavyweights still exerting their dominance and bringing back the matches of years past. A solid performance from both of them! The rumors of Nadal and especially Federer slipping will be largely quelled by their play at Roland Garos. Federer took down Djokovic in a very hard fought match, then played very well against the King of Clay. Well done both of you!

i just watched a little bit when i was at my uncles.
i learned that federer look like this guy i know, and being one of those ball chasers would be a really sick job.

Yes, being a ball chaser and being a guy is really sick, as well as disgusting. I'm glad you have come to this realization and will be taking steps to correct your ways and stop hanging out in "those" clubs and going up on "those" mountains with "those" cowboys.

i was pretty upset.. I knew nadal was going to win because he is god of clay, but I thought fed had a chance this year.

He started out sooo strong in the first set and had setpoint... Nadal thrives on the slow ball which is what clay does - slows the ball down. Fed is so old but I think he will will win Wimbledon this year. He crushes low backhands and thats how grass plays
