@@flashbarryallen776 😂 Yea, English press likes to hype up their tournaments. But this final isn't the best. It had a great story behind it. Nadal finally ends Federer's dominance on grass, after two previous defeats (2006+2007). He won both Roland Garros and Wimbledon that year. But Djoko : Nadal 2012, had a hell of a tale. In 2011, Djokovic produced perhaps the greatest single season in history. In 2010, Nadal won three Majors. Djoko won three Majors in 2011, and defeated Nadal in clay courts that season. The showdown in AO 2012 was an epic five sets which cemented Djokovic's place on top of world tennis. I have to say, in terms of quality, the AO 2009 final and semi final (Nadal's match) were also phenomenal.

Fed is incredibly stubborn sometimes to his benefit and detriment. He’s gonna regret not switching rackets and strengthening his backhand sooner especially if he gets surpassed in slam count.

This match brought more belief to then new generation of players like Murray , wawrinka and tennis became more even and the competition became stronger.. Hats off to rafa once again for believing the impossible is possible of beating roger on grass .. which was not the case until this match . He showed determination and courage and kept pushing roger and finally broke the deadlock .. by doing so he became the record holder for longest period as world No.2 .. this match indeed played a big role in tennis in a way of breaking certain mindset and taking new strides .

Frankly, apart from the 2004-2006 period, looking back at these videos, I can only now see just what an underpowered scapel that PS90 racket he used back then was and how much it allowed Nadal to bully Federer with huge heavy strokes, even on grass. Seriously, those backhands by Fed are just bunts! In 2019, their shots were much more powerful than 2008. Fed's shots were just cannon balls compared to this match and Nadal too was hitting with far more power. Rafa was an absolute gazelle in 2008. In Rome that year, he made Djokovic look like he was facing a wall.

90 is the size of the head of the racquet in square inches. Now Fed plays with a 97 racquet, which is a huuuge difference. I played myself (as an amateur of course) for a period with Fed signature 90 sq. inches racquet and it required an insane amount of precision in hitting the ball. I don’t think there are top100 players that play with racquet heads smaller than 95 sq. inches. (I’m not an expert though!) Cheers mate

There's only one Rafa and Roger, and only one match like this.

Awesome points! Seems to be a really pro-Nadal cut, but I’m ok with that

I have a feeling that we will never see this sort of rivalry anytime soon. Man their every shot meant something

The level of the match is evident from the fact that despite Rafa playing his best tennis ever he still needed 5 super tight sets to get the title and overcome the great Roger Federer! ❤️

The thing nowadays…it feels like points are won on unforced errors vs winners except for maybe Alcaraz. Guys like Sinner, Ruud, tsitsipas, zverev…they good but I don’t see them hitting winners as much to win the point. It’s more like expecting who will miss-hit first.

Such a tense match. I still believe Federer was affected by that mononucleosis. His confidence that year was lower and Nadal was just growing stronger and stronger.

But Nadal plays every match with a congenitally deformed foot .... he has a handicap disadvantage in all his matches ....
