It definitely was.. especially since the last set went on for soo long. I think the game was about 4 hours-ish .. I can only imagine how tiring that would've been. But Congrats Federer! and Hard luck to Roddick.

Yeah, I think it was like 4 hours and 20 or somewhere around that.

how can you be so sure? now that there is absolutely no pressure on him fed can play relaxed and easy and that's when he plays his absolute best, besides nadal is still recovering from injury so we don't know how he is gonna be, murray is a mental midget and chokes when the pressures on and djokovic i have no idea what the heck happened to, so saying you 100% sure that he won't win is pretty dumb at this point. (unles he withdraws because of his kid but thats completely different)

lol maybe, i guess it all depends on what happens in august, if his kid is born early he could play both master series tournaments and get a good warmup and be in good form going into the USO, however if he has to skip one or both of them then he's not gonna have enought practice time on the hardcourts and then he would be more succeptible to defeat.

Regardless of his child being born, you're right he's relaxed at this point, so I don't see why he'd be even close to being defeated *fingers crossed* but he'll win
And Nadal... no one knows when he'll recover.. but there's still a month and 3 weeks.. Hope that's enough! :(
