Federer vs. Nadal Australian Open Tennis

[jakarta]

No-one interested in two of the finest players in the history of the game going hard at it in a Grand Slam Final then?

Nope. Boring.

I am. Have been watching throughout, 2 sets all now. Great drama.

I considered starting a thread, but couldn't be bothered.

So...final set. Hope Roger wins.

I'm watching on Eurosport Player. The match has ebbed and flowed. Both players at different times have shown glimpses of their brilliant best, but at other times have shown that they are in the autumn of their career.

Would love to see Federer win it, but Nadal has so much resilience and willpower and that's usually helped him come out on top against Federer in 5 set matches. Federer's extra day's recovery time though could be very helpful to him.

Would love Federer to win but just can't see it. He was imperious in the third set but dropped off in the fourth and has surrendered momentum to Nadal. Will take a huge effort to reverse things now and with their history of Nadal having the upper hand I just don't think it will happen. Hope it does but...

Whoever wins tennis will be the ultimate winner, incredible drama.

Roger breaks back - 3-3 final set. Incredible stuff.

Roger takes a 4-3 lead. Wow!

This could be the last time these two meet in a final. Historic stuff.
