February the 1st,2009..
The men's finals of australian open..
Over 600000 people watched the match.. More than 90% of them eagerly waiting for Fedex to win the 14th grand slam and level the scores with Sampras.
Most people loved Fedex so much that they simply couldn't support Nadal. Without prejudice, both are great players. I had been a great supporter of Nadal all these years.
I watched him loose to Fedex so many times.
I knew this guy would one day beat Fedex.
Fedex, the world no 1 (Now, once world No1), is and was the unbeaten hero of the world audience. People loved him like crazy, as they did Sampras or Steffi and so on..
Fedex, never really lost a match during his dream run.
Any champion must have a challange..and so came Nadal..
World no 1 is not a permanent post either.
They way these men played the finals, God. Can this be called the best match ever?
Nadal has definitely lived up to his expectation.
Fedex, you would cherish these memories and the next vicotry would be the sweetest.. he would have forgotten the 13 grandslams he had ever won.
The joy of winning can be felt only when it is hard earned. Fedex would have realised that..
Oh my, What have you both done to tennis?
