Just one word of Murray is enough to describe Federer. I can cry like Roger, but I cant play like him. This summarizes Roger's game and that too coming from the mouth of the proud Scott who rarely indulges in praise, it is more special.

'...it is not enough to be a tennis player, you need to also be a person' this sums up what makes Federer so special and such a role model. All through yesterday he did not swear or give in to frustration when the points did not go his way, like Murray did. He was calm, went about his business and treated it like a game he wanted to excel in. That is what will always separate this great player from everyone else. He is so complete as a sportsman, because he is so complete as a human being.

But just where is Rafa today ? Knocked out often in qualifications. Dismal and pathetic to say the least.

Leading over only Federer doesn't make Nadal a better player than Federer. Because if this is the fact Nadal would have played in every semi finals or final like Federer and would have won those all! This just a matter of being in pressure in a particular situation or against a particular rival. Sometimes being on the verge of breaking a record also put extra pressure on you that is what happened with Federer. If you watch cricket, you'd have seen that sometimes a batsmen who is hitting bowlers all around the field is just beaten by a single bowler in the team. That doesn't make that bowler "the best" Sometimes a talender hits runs when all the top batsmen fail. Federer is true champion. He has played 23 out of 23 semi finals and has missed just 2-3 finals in those. This tells the story. Whereas Nadal is just doing well in French Open and last time he couldn't even did any good there too. Nadal's game was power game you do good until you have enough power in your body than you are just good for nothing. But class does exist longer! Federer has that class!
