An emotional win for Roger Federer last Sunday in Wimbledon,
definitely a hard earned win against the only player in the open era who can
unsettle the Fed’s precision play. Nadal
surely made him worked for this win. This is
the only time that Federer was pushed to a five set tie-breaker in Wimbledon. 

To make the win sweeter, Bjorn Borg, the only
player to have achieved a five-consecutive Wimbledon Grandslam (1976-1980), has graced the
competition and witnessed Roger Federer pull off the same feat.

not quite yet for nadal - almost. young and powerful, a legend in the making. for now he remains the king of clay.

tears of joy, a feat only a few legends can make. the 5th consecutive cup almost slipped from his grasp when contending against nadal.

Can’t wait for next year.  Will  the FED go on to try to break Sampras’s seven Wimbledon titles or will RAFA  finally be the first Spanish player (since 1966) to win the gentlemen’s cup?  Theirs is a rivalry that legends are made of.
