Blockbuster Final

"Flawless" was the word Federer said when asked about his tennis in the Semifinal against Bjorkman at Wimbledon. The way he played in the semifinal today left everybody at the center court in such a awe that even Greek will wonder how come these kind of angles which he creates on the court are not even thought by us when we invented Geometry. He moves like a cat on the court so silent and some times it appears that he won't even sweat a drop, bad idea for the Nike to market the vented so called air conditioned shirt via Roger. Looks like Bjorkman gave up even before he entered the court today saying that he will have fun and enjoy his semifinal. It happens with almost all the players on the circuit especially when they are playing against him on grass but with one exception "Rafeal Nadal".
This 20 year old kid from Spain not only can cover the court like the way cheetah runs so fast but now he showed the whole world that he is not a mere Spanish clay court player. Already termed has one of the best clay courters ever with a record 60 wins on clay and still going, he showed his dedication and determination that he can play on grass by the way he rushed to come to England after that triumph at Roland Garros beating Roger. Once after he came back almost from defeat against Robert Kendrick the journey man from USA in the second round he steam rolled his opponents including Andre Agassi in the third round who is playing his last wimbledon of his career. Its amazing to see the way he adapted to the surface with his so called weak serve said by everyone including Roger.
What makes this final so intriguing is Nadal doesn't care whether Roger was playing on grass or on planet Venus. He plays his game and with his clear domination over the past two years over Roger it gives him so much of confidence that he thinks he can beat Roger. I think it finally comes to who is strong mentally than just tennis. If Federer can play the way he is playing this whole tournament "flawless", I think he is clear cut favorite. But if Nadal gets into his head we are sure going to see a new Wimbledon Champion who is not just a mere clay court player but the player which we are going to watch for years to come. Either way it should be fun.
