RAFAEL “NICE ASS-ETS” NADAL defeats ROGER “THE GOAT” FEDERER
6-4 7-6(5)
to win the Madrid Master’s 1000 2010
So, Rafael, what have you achieved today?
- First player in history to win all three claycourt Master’s titles in the same season.
- Surpasses André Agassi as the player to win the most Master’s titles in their career – Nadal now has 18 of the blessed things, and he’s only 23-years-old.
- In their 21st meeting, Nadal beats Federer for the 14th time.
- He has now won 168 of 174 matches played on clay since 2005.
Living legend, you can look but don’t touch.
Oh, and Federer played well and was very gracious in defeat (although Nadal apologised again – the Swiss maestro must get sick of hearing “Roger I sorry”, no?). Still, I hope someone makes a .gif of that final point and writes ‘FAIL’ across the middle of it.
