Another Classic fo sure....Federer making a lot of unforced errors. Nadal seems to be keeping up. Back and forth...who knows what's going to happen.

Federer should blink. He had a tremendous advantage with an extra day off and hasn't capitalized on it. It's clear to me Rafa is in his head.

Only a Fed miracle now will save him.

This was the sloppiest I've ever seen Federer in a final. He just doesn't have it like he used to. He can still be brilliant, but he's no longer consistently great. Rafa is king.

Federer's serve killed him. He's usually money when he's down and needs one. Like Pants said, Nadal got in his head big time.

That too. Choking on his serve, and his backhand.

All Nadal needs is 5 more years of good health and a U.S. Open and he'll go down as the greatest of all time.

LOL...Federer running around his backhand. That was hilarious.

Woke up at the end of the fourth set. Nadal is playing flawlessly.
