Nadal takes Wimbledon 2008!

July 6, 2008 - labeled the "Best Match in Tennis History" [6-4, 6-4, 6-7 (5), 6-7 (8), 9-7]

Nadal ends Federer's 5 years of dominance at Wimbledon and becomes the first man since Borg to win French and Wimbledon in the same year. Through rain delays, darkness, roller coaster of emotions and the finest quality of tennis rallys one can ask for - Nadal prevails.

The only question is now when will be secure his #1 ranking. For a champion that has won so many titles and beaten the world #1 regularly in so many finals, he deserves this rightful spot after so many years as the longest holder of the #2 spot. My guess is that in Cincy, Rafa will be #1!!

Looking forward even more now to going to the US Open this year =)
