One of the best tennis matches of all time!

Vamos Rafa!

I was thinking that the WHOLE time I was watching it, even though I had to take a couple of naps cuz that shit was long as hell. But great drama and athleticism on display. Federer is a class act and Nadal is sooooo damn -able Congrats to both of 'em on this historic match.

Amen to the bold.

And, yeah, it was an out of this world match. They were BOTH incredible.

Roger blew so many chances.

Roger did awesome to come from 2 sets down but Nadal is just so strong, both mentally and physically. The whole tournament was fantastic.

Phew! Thanks Rafa for keeping Federer away from surpassing Bjorn Borg.

So you'll be rooting for Roger to stop Rafa from passing Borg by winning 5 straight French Open titles next year, right?

Unbelievable to see how many opportunities he had. Damn near painful to watch.

Nadal is a great player but I can't stand his panty-checking at every serve.

Awesome tennis this past weekend. The women on Saturday were great, but the men were brilliant. What a match! I wasn't sure who I wanted to win as they were both so great. Best tennis I've seen in a long time.

Nadal really needs to sort out his underwear....his thong is always getting yanked from his asscrack....and then he smells his fingers....

that just looks like a habit he has, he was always at it.

also the way he fixed his bottle after taking a drink. ocd maybe?

fab game thouigh. i was really hoping he would win, & he looked so cute afterwards posing with the trophy.

I liked the underwear grabbing. He is cute, until he opens his mouth to speak, that is.

I didn't get to watch the end. So Nadal won? I am shocked! It looked like Federer was on his way back.

I can't imagine playing under that kind of pressure, sitting through rain delays, etc.

Nadal vx Federer was a classic match, one of the best ever. It really could have gone either way. I read in the paper, that Federer was midly complaining about the time Nadal takes in between points (they have 30 seconds to serve after the end of the last point) and that the referee should enforce it, but it didn't seem to be an issue. I'm glad I saw it.

I'm sure many people have tried to tell him to stop but it's part of his routine. Bizarre, but I'm almost used to it now. It's crazy that he's so good at such a young age. Hope he doesn't burn out because he is working his ass off on court. Hope they have many more matches like this.
