Federer-Nadal 1-6, 0-2
Besides Nadal having the good shots, Federer has been giving out points because of errors. sad. i found myself raising my hand in disbelief every time that happens. Yet, this game isnt bad at all, its just that Nadal always lets his opponents eat the dust of that red clay. *to be updated*

Federer-Nadal 1-6, 2-2
Federer just got his second set win. that rally that sealed the deal was really cute. A long shot for first serve, then Nadal answers, then Federer does a short range shot, then Nadal hurries to the net to answer it, then Federer gives it back to Nadal in a longer range. Just now, one of the common errors that was happening against Federer has been committed again. When that ball just likes to bump into the net. *more updates coming*

Federer-Nadal 1-6, 3-5
i was hoping that it would end with 4-4 at this point, but then, no. After three Deuces, Nadal got it. Federer was trying to do some shot range tricks, but it back fired on him, the way i see it. sad. i love the Feds still. but this second set is really exciting that the match is so tight and neck to neck. *and this is not even third set yet. so updates later on*

Federer-Nadal 1-6, 3-6, 0-2
Looking bad. These numbers look bad. All his (Federer) short range backhands sucked. really. the net just got it too much. This is i think the worst numbers for Feds since he and Rafa played French Open Finals. *more updates*

Federer-Nadal 1-6, 3-6, 0-5
Very bad numbers. This is the first time i will see Feds have a 0 record. poor Feds. his short range lack projectile, and his long range has too much power. Nadal can taste that cup again.

Federer-Nadal 1-6, 3-6, 0-5
I feel bad for Feds, but what can I say. Nadal didnt roll over the court this time. He rolled to his back when he won against Djokovic, was he really expecting that "this is Feds, hey! i'll win again." just kidding. but, yeah, he didnt roll at his back. after two hours and five minutes, game is over. Nadal gets his fourth French Open. Lets go to grass now! Wimbledon season!!!

Awarding Ceremony
it was fun watching the Awarding Ceremony. Roger spoke in French for his speech, but nothing beats four time French Open winner Rafa Nadal. He spoke his greeting in French, his note to Roger in English, the rest of his speech in Spanish, and the end note in French. this 22 year old is such a character. Roger smiled amidst his sadness over this bad record, Nadal feels for this also, the commentators have noted.
