Roger Federer was up to every test. Unfortunately so was Novak Djokovic. They played an emotionally taxing nearly five hour Wimbledon final today.
In the fifth set Roger was serving on his 2nd match point. He approached well on a short ball. He had the net covered as it should be. The problem was that in this huge test of wills Djokovic was stronger whipping a clean winner past Fed at the net. Roger did not lose that point. He got beat.
I believe it was one of the finest matches ever played. Fed won the two non- tiebreaker sets and Djokovic the three decided by tiebreaker.
They were exhausted as the match came to an end. They gave the avid tennis fans of the planet a match for the ages.
