if federer won the first set at 5-2 the match would have been totally different. The momentum totally switched and rafa gained so much confident coming back from a 2-5 deficit in the first set.

what you guys think? Can he repeat wimbledon?

I think Djokovic would have beaten him if he made it to the final... or if same Federer in the semi final showed up.

I can't figure out why Federer can't learn to hit Nadal's top spin forehand to his backhand... He knows his game better than anyone but it's always the same story... crosscourt topspin forehand to his backhand... and unforced error...

Not surprised. Novak is tearing it up this year and Rafa wasn't 100% (as a huge Nadal fan, I still think Novak would've won if Nadal didn't have that foot issue - it just would've been closer).

Novak is unstoppable this year. Nobody can touch him right now. Grass was supposed to be his worst surface too.
Nadal this year isn't Nadal last year though... will see how he adjusts...
Novak has beaten Nadal 5 times in a row this year... all in the finals... on all 3 surfaces... this has to be getting to his head.
