Australian Open NADALled!!

What a spectacular display of fervour for the sport it was by both men. Absolutely stunning. It was a gift to our eyes to have witnessed some highly-skilled backhand winners and professional aces. While both men battled out with extraordinary levels of certitude, the concept of competition outweighs one over the other. And in this case it is the spaniard Rafael Nadal, Gladiator who emerged triumphant. 

Nadal,retaining his no.1 spot

With this victory which foiled Fed's plans of equalling Pete's record, he has proved beyond doubt that he is not a king of clay alone. While the all-time leader in earnings, Roger Federer has failed in this endeavour he seems to be satisfied with the thought he has lost to someone who is no less than him. Even otherwise, a defeat is a defeat in whatever way you may try to vindicate it. As for any sportsman, especially for the no.2 seed in the world, the sense of defeat is unbearable though he is second to only one(no.1). I feel Federer would have been severly afflicted by this backsliding and the burns, though unseen, would propel him to reach his zenith of adroitness. With strong hopes...............

P.S: Don't ever tag me as a fed supporter just because of the last line. I am achromatic.
