Nadal is our Australian Open for 2009. It was a freaking great match! a 5 setter and as nail biting as the last match Nadal played in against fellow Spaniard Fernando Versdasco.
When Roger Federer went to get his trophie for second place he surprised me when he started crying. I felt really sorry for and i think i like him just a tiny little bit now. He was sweet and he even thanked the audience (which i notice Nadal didn’t)
I’m going to miss the Australian Open. But all good things must come to an end… well until next year.
**EDIT**
I guess this will be one of my last tennis blog entries until maybe Roland Garros. But for your tennis fix go to http://crazyworldoftennis.blogspot.com/
All i have to say is I am so glad a stayed up and watched the full match until the end. 5 hours and 14 minutes. How amazing is that?? That is the record time for a match in the Australian Open as this match lasted three minutes longer than the five hour 11 minute marathon played by Boris Becker and Omar Camporese in 1991.
I just wished that I had been in Rod Laver Arena last night. It would have been the best atmosphere. I would be on the edge of my seat. Maybe even falling off it!
I was going for Verdasco and wanted him to beat Nadal but i was not dissapointed on how he played.
