Weeping federer, after his lost to nadalAnd so.. the inaugural grand slam of 2009 has officially come to a modest close with some exceptional tennis..
Congratulations to Serena williams and Rafael nadal for winning the women's and men's singles respectively in the Australian open 2009! Serena is now officially the world no.1 in women's tennis.
It was a rather gruelling match for both nadal and federer as they faced off in the finals. In spite of the lack of sufficient rest from the previous match against verdasco, nadal brought on his best and managed a win over federer; 7-5, 3-6, 7-6, 3-6, 6-2.
The next grand slam will be the french open on 24th May.. It just seems so far away.. I think i'm already suffering from post-aust open syndrome. damn!
