Just when a host of people [majorly consisting of the NADAL fans] wrote this swiss genius off,he continued to keep his cool,continued to remain serene, continued to play the game in HIS way,and what I saw today was probably one of the biggest quarterfinal matches ever,like they say,an EPIC match!!Being down by 2 sets and having his serve broken midway through the third set, there was a dreadful anticipation of a straight sets defeat...but screw my anticipation and worship this champion player...
He cameback from trailing 3-4 in the third set ,to go on to win it 6-4...
That's when the wonderful crowd started to get behind the champ and there was no looking back from then on...
He came out even more stronger in the 4th set to clinch it 6-0 and we were looking at the same player who was down by two full sets....
Deja Vu they call it, so I'll do that too for this was the 4th time that fedex had come back from behind...trailing by two sets and then going on to win the next two to take the game to the final 5th set!!
Something inside kept telling me that from here on,there could be nothing that's going to stop this man...he is out there to win his record 14th grandslam!!
He came out in the 5th set and clinched it 6-2 to advance to the all important semi final...
And spare a thought for Tommy Haas, who was the hero-on-the-verge-of-causing-an-upset for the first couple of hours of the game....After losing the 3rd set, he was not just taking on federer,but also the crowd which got totally behind the seed #2!!
So, eventually, Federer goes through and looks like he's not going back without that Goldenware!
P.S::
~~~~ GO ROGER GO~~~~
~~~~~~Can't help but talk about the outrageous-pink-attire-of-the-"Raging bull"....Pink Bull?? Now, that's artistic :P =))~~~~~~
