WHAT A FINAL!!
Nope not the Asia Cup one.
The Wimbledon one!
This is a cricket blog and we don't usually write about other sports unless using them as a reference in a cricket related post, but last night's Wimbledon Final deserves a mention in every sports forum that exists.
It was by far one of the most fiercely competitive Tennis match I have seen in a long long time.
There was tension, there was drama, it was exciting, there was anxiety, there were fightbacks, there were cheers, there were sighs, there was rain, there were fist pumps, and in the end there were tears.
One has to feel sorry for Roger Federer for missing out on a record, but one can't help but feel elated for Rafael Nadal.
The boy threw everything including the Kitchen Sink at King Federer and finally he did what he couldn't do in the last 2 Wimbledon Finals.
Federer summed up the match in his first words of "I tried everything", and he sure did.
He fought till the end, he tried whatever he could but Nadal was at him throughout the match and Federer was always fighting back.
Nadal deserved to win I think. I know many loyal Federer fans who are disappointed, but you gotta give it Nadal. He played his heart out.
I heard somewhere that its the first time since the 80s that someone has won the French Open and the Wimbledon in the same year.
Considering that he's only 22, one can only imagine what he can achieve.
Here's to RAFAEL NADAL!!!
