Once again their final in the Australian Open made history...brutal, exhausting, relentless tennis for 6 hours... I cant help but feel major respect to them as athletes and individuals. They showed amazing heart, amazing class, they never give up and they are ready to completely destroy their bodies and defy nature, just to do what they love to do.
Play tennis...
This was the most amazing tennis match I ever watched. It had everything. Sloppy game at first, amazing rallies after, turnarounds, amazing points, unexpected events, amazing conclusion, amazing recognition and class from both players.
Considering Novak I NEVER believed that after his epic clash with Murray that lasted almost 5 hours, he could comeback and be ready for Nadal with just one day's rest, when Nadal cruised over Federer and had 2 days to rest. But this guy is just UNREAL... I mean he must be made out of nothing else but steel...
It was insane, I seriously thought that at some point Djoker will actually retire, his body seemed to be tortured. And yet he stayed there, fighting point by point.
And Nadal... what a fighter... what a fighter...
Djokovic said it best: "To bad there has to be only one winner out of this". And oh boy is he right. They are both winners in my mind. An unforgettable match and seriously I cant wait to see them again. An honor to the tennis world and sports in general. It represented all the things that make us love sports and then some.
Once again RESPECT by myself to both of them and congradulations to Novak. WOW... WOW....
