The third set started.! It was 2-2 with Federer serving.! Doubts of whether he would win his 6th Championship was the talking point of everyone there.! And indeed it was.! Couple of Federer's errors and a Nadal Brilliance got it to 0-40.! Everyone in my house thought- "Indeed has the Champ Fallen".!
BUT HOLD ON.! The Champ had risen from the ashes..He won that game and the set in a tie-breaker 7-5.!
It was 2-1 Nadal.! After the rain interruption in the 3rd set, the skies had cleared now.!
Fourth Set had commenced.! It was 6-5 to Nadal.! And Fed was a championship point down..But fought it all out to get it to a tie Breaker.!
And people if i aint commenting much about this tie breaker, i need'nt have written this blog at all..!
Some gripping tennis with a mixture of emotions.. All was witnessed in this tie breaker.! The Champ was down 2-5 in the tie breaker.! Nadal's serve too.! Reliable one.!
Is this the end of Federer ? Er.! HOLD ON.! WE KNOW WHAT CHAMPIONS ARE MADE OF.! NERVES OF STEEL !!
Nadal double faulted once and then played a poor point.! 4-5.! Two ripping services to make it advantage fed.! 6-5.! Set Point Fed.! Nadal held both his services to go 6-7.! Second championship point of the Set.! Federer saved it.. Federer's second serve..He played a perfect point followed by a perfect approach shot.!
BUT NADAL.! BOY O' BOY.! What a pass it was.! Jaw Dropping pass..! Out of no where.! Hail Nadal for that.! 7-8 to Fed.!
Third Championship Point.!
Nadal served into the corner.! Came in.! But Federer.! U beauty.! A ripping pass down on Championship Point.! It had to be perfect.! And it was.!
8-8 to Federer.! And with yet another bullet services, and a huge roar of "YEAAAAA", it was SET for Federer.! Emotions was at its peak.! Nadal disappointed about his missed chances.!
THE CHAMP IS HERE.! READY TO TAKE UP THE FIGHT TO THE COMPATRIOT.! IT's GAME ON.!
