If you watched the Wimbledon Men's championship match between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal earlier today, you know what I'm talking about.
It's even better than the 1980 Borg / McEnroe final which I remember seeing as a kid (the one with the 18-16 tiebreak).
But don't just take my word for it, Caroline Cheese (the MBM commentator for the BBC said the following at the end of the match,
2128: As the darkness fast encloses Centre Court, I can just see two figures dressed in white, carrying vastly different silverware. Rafael Nadal has just ended Roger Federer's Wimbledon reign, and has he also replaced the Swiss master as the world's best player? A question for another day when we've all had a lie-down. If you missed this final, watch it on iPlayer, get the DVD, whatever. You must see it. It was possibly the best match we will see in our lifetimes. I feel like crying, so I'll stop twittering on and say bye bye from Wimbledon 2008.
ESPN Classic will be airing the entire epic match on Monday, 7pm, so go see it!!!
