2 sets all into the start of the final one now it could go either way :o

It's been very close but Nadal was all over Federer those last few games - who'll take it?!

Congrats Federer, probably the greatest tennis player we have ever seen

well done Federer but i wanted Nadal to win :(

Well done to both, but I'm glad Federer won! :cheer:

Well Done to Roger Federer, I'm delighted he emulated Bjorn Borg's 5th consecutive Wimbledon title in row.

 

However like in 1980, you have to wonder if this is the beginning of the end of his dominance with Nadal being the McEnroe (except with more gamesmanship and less tantrums).

Nadal only has a great track record in French Open though, he has never won in Australia, USA or Wimbledon so he is a long way still from breaking Federer's dominance and at 25 there is no reason why Federer can't be strong for another 10 years, Agassi was still successful in his mid 30's plus Borg retired from tennis ridiculously young

Absolutley great final! I'm very pleased for Federer, he's the best player on grass and he showed that today, however next year I think it'll be Nadal's turn to win Wimbeldon...

i hope he can

Was happy for Federer to win even though perhaps now or very soon Nadal will be the better player.

Much prefer to watch players that come into the net rather then baselines players like Nadal.

This final was interesting because it was so even, for Tennis entertainment I hope Nadal doesn't dominate for the next few years as will lead to many dull games.

Certainly not in my view. Bjorn Borg the greatest ever by a mile.

 

 

I really do not see any changing of the guard at all, Federer had a dodgy 4th set but he got the crucial points when it mattered in the match and the scoreline is quite flattering to Nadal

 

Federer is only 25 players don't reach their peak till around 30 so Federer will be getting BETTER

 

Nadal is plucky and determined but he is going to need more than that on grass to depose Federer in the coming years

I agree, no way is Federer the best ever, though he is brilliant. I hope Nadal never wins, he never looks happy -_- Face like a slapped arse!

Certainly not in my view. Bjorn Borg the greatest ever by a mile.

 

Can't compare the 2 though, Borg used wooden rackets and Federer has not, its a complete different era much more based on power and Borg never had the power with the wooden rackets that these guys have

Bahh I wanted Nadal to win. :( I mean the last time someone else won the men's Wimbledon I was in year seven. :manson:

Murray and Jankovic mixed doubles final now ^_^

I hope they win. I have an odd crush on Jankovic ^_^

1 set up and 4-1 down in second......

Murray and Jankovic won :cheer:

:wub: the first Brit to win at Wimbledon since 1987 :wub: and Jelena was amazing too!
