CAMELOT FANTASIES

Hello all, sorry I couldn't be here yesterday. I had a very busy day but I did get to watch Federer vs Del Potro match and then a bit later, the 2nd set of Youzhny/Ferrer match. Needless to say I am very happy for both. The first result was never in doubt. In fact, I thought DP was going to snatch it in straight but then again, he got a bit too comfortable after the hard fought 1st set and Federer struck just in time. To Federer's credit, he was able to hold on to his break and kept the pressure on. I have to say, I felt very sorry for Federer. He's a legend after all and we all got so much used to seeing him winning. And now he's more like on a losing streak; still though, he made the final here so not too shabby for a very 32 year old.

I was over the moon with Youzhny's win. Felt really bad that I couldn't watch the whole match. I did like Ferrer's speech even though I did not understand a thing lol and it was really long, but I felt he was being very gracious and was probably thanking everyone. So 3 of the four finalists yesterday were either 31 or 32 years old. Not too bad for these guys since tennis is so physical these days.
