May b this Wimbledon final is equally as good as 2001 final where wild card entry Goran Ivanisevic bt Patrick Rafter 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 2-6, 9-7. So he finally succeded to break jinx of grand slam after featuring in 1991 wimbledon final only to loose against Agassi..... It was his dad a heart patient who was present in stands against doctor's advice & Goran said after the match that if he had loose ........he might have lost his father.....

The 2001 final was good. it had a lot of drama like this one. But in terms of quality this one is the best ever played in the history of the game. Federer and Rafa play a totally different brand of tennis which even the 4th and 5th ranked players dont play. it is reflected in the ATP points. Federer and rafa are above 6000 while 5th ranked davydenko is 2900 and 4th ranked ferrer is 3000. Djokovic occasionaly plays the same brand of tennis. He has about 4900 points. This will be the greatedt game played for a long time to come. Maybe next wimbledon!!
