Federer vs Nadal AO 2009 highlights (part 2)

his uncle toni said: "he was brought up to realize: our problems are small compared to those suffering in africa or other parts of the world...to have a bad face if you lose in tennis is not allowed..you are not so good that you can do that...it is not as if you discovered a miracle medical cure to help people like albert schweitzer"

nadal's uncle toni said: "Rafa is very easy to work with..whatever i say..he bows his head and listens quietly and without complaint he works..i have never see him throw his racquet in frustration..he takes care of his things carefully because he knows there are others that can not even afford a pair of shoes..it is a joy to work with him".

about crying: his uncle toni said: "the only time he cried in a loss was in the locker room in wimbledon: I told him to stop, it was only a game..and he said: "but Tio Toni,,it might have been my ONLY chance to win wimbledon"....

Nadal: I talk with (coach) Toni before the match and he told me: 'You have to be there. You have to be there. Believe on the victory for the whole time. Repeat to yourself the whole time the same - you have to win, you have to win'."

"I love to win," he said.

"I love the competition. Not only in tennis, I love the competition in all aspects of life.

"When I compete, I love to be there and fight for win. Maybe I love more the fight to win, than (to) win."

"If you lose your illusion to improve, you are over, no? If one day I lose the illusion to improve, I'm going to go back home and have a boat and fish," he said.

I like this Nadal better. He actually attacks his backhand. Now it's all forehand.

[lishun]

still the most compelling match i have ever watched.

federer just lost it in the last set. far too many errors. i thought he actually played the better tennis.

Well here we go again tomorrow. Heart says Roger, but i think the match will be very similar to the final 3 years ago and Rafa will prevail. Rafa just has the Roger's number in the big matches. Hope I'm wrong, but just can't see how Roger will get out of that Rafa forehand to Roger's backhand crosscourt exchange.

@Came7on, if ya watch the 2010 US open final.. thats how Nadal has to play with good serve good attacking.

Nadal was at his best form in this tournament. He made the most impossible shots I've ever seen.
