I wanted Nadal to win the tennis yesterday, but i have to admit when he let slip a 2 set lead i wondered whether he would blow it in that final set. But he was the one that seemed most likely to win it to me in what was a memorable final set from a magnificent sporting contest. His speed around the court is absolutely phenomenal, that's two great finals in two years.
