I caught one of the best matches of Australian Open 2009 thus far. It was the semi-final match between Rafael Nadal and Fernando Verdasco. It ended with Verdasco having a double fault which resulted in Nadal taking the game 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 6-7, 6-4. My heart really goes out to Verdasco for playing such a great game. He really pushed the World No. 1 to the max, giving him a run for his money. The match took 5 hours and 14 minutes. Nadal only had one more point than Verdasco's 192 which was the damm double fault. As you people may know, I am not a big fan of Nadal therefore I'm quite sad Verdasco didnt dump Nadal out. The only good thing about all these is while Nadal was getting his ass kicked, Roger Federer, Nadal's opponent on Sunday, was having a good sleep getting ready to kick his ass again on Sunday. Long live Federer!
ps. i knew they were close but never THIS close..
