Finally ... he made it!

After so many tries, my favorite tennis player, Federer finally managed to beat his archrival on clay court, Nadal, 2-6, 6-2, 6-0 at Hamburg Masters. With the win, he also ended Nadal's amazing record winning streak on clay at 81 matches.

What a match! When I watched Federer was beaten 2-6 in the first set, I thought that was it. Have to wait another day for him to actually beat Nadal on clay. But he made a comeback in the second set and what a comeback! Won 6-2 in second set and unbelievable 6-0 in the final set. This time around, Federer answered every shot that Nadal gave him. Superb match from two great sportsmen.

Fitting starts to the upcoming French Open. Bring it on, I say!
