A great men's final.
I was clearly wrong in my prediction of a Federer win.
Although Nadal had attention by the trainer at one point, he never, ever, looked like he was under any pressure.
Federer, however, was up and down all through the match. It is to his credit that it went to five sets.
His emotional show at the presentation only brought a lump to the throat for a second. I soon thought, "Grow up, you dick. You just got paid more than I'll see in the next fifteen years."
That little rant aside, it was a good tournament (just too damned hot).
