Novak Djokovic truly is an exceptional tennis player

Making Nadal look ordinary.

He is just incredible, where has he been the past few years?

 

[matthew]

Wow, maybe not. Is that 8 unforced errors in a row?

 

[NorthStandN1A]

it is a 5 set match - i see a long night ahead

I want to go to bed for college in the morning but don't think I'll ever see this tennis live again for a long, long time.

Rafa a break up in 2nd set though

 

[matthew]

WOW, and i thought i was quite good at tennis

 

[matthew]

How quick is Djokovic? 17 minute game ffs i won't be in bed till college starts at this rate.

theres not often a standing ovation by the whole crowd in the middle of a set, but that 3rd game deserved it

I'm still watching - I HATE the atmosphere, too many yelling jocks for my tastes, but the game is amazing. Very rarely is one in awe of sportsmen, but most of the points have been superhuman, in skill and endurance.

2 sets to one, Djokovic, and I have no idea who'll win it.

I agree with this - but Nadal should haev the edge from here.

Still looks as fresh as the start of the match - what an athlete!

Looks as if Djokovic hasn't broken sweat yet! The back business may prove interesting

Djokovic has beaten Nadal in the last 6 times they've met - 5 in finals.

For me Djokovic had won the final before it had started. His mental strength this year is unstoppable. Nadal's been there and Federer. It's hard to argue who's been a better player in terms of ability. But when you have the winning mentality you've more often than not won before the games started. Murray for me will struggle to ever win a grand slam. To be the first British male to win one for a long time already sends negative thoughts into your head. Why haven't other Brits won one? Will I fail too? When it comes to the lesser tournaments Murray seems to win some. Funny how he struggles in the majors because he has the ability.

But yea what a match. Some of the rally's were probably THE best I've seen for a long long time. For me the best match ive watched since the nadal v federer wimbledon final!
