Sports: Rafael Nadal - Wimbledon Title Dream Comes True

After 3 consecutive years reach Wimbledon final and meet the same opponent, Rafael Nadal finally grab his first Wimbledon title and ends Roger Federer's dominant in grass court.

In a tiring and longest 5 set match in Wimbledon history, interupted 3 times by rain, Rafael Nadal beat Roger Federer 6-4 6-4 6-7 6-7 9-7.

After Rafael Nadal's convincing first 2 sets, Roger Federer fought back in an incredible way in the next 2 sets with his thunder serves and brilliant strike. He escaped couple of Nadal's championship points and look like the last year drama will repeat again. But hard-fought Rafael Nadal finally be able to break Federer's serve when the final set score is at 7-7 to make it 8-7 in his favor and serve for championship. With no more mistake, he be able to get the crucial points and bring home the Wimbledon title and trophy. Surely he can bit the trophy as often as he wants (see the picture)... he he he.

It such an incredible and entertaining games by the two top tennis players. It worth of watching it till early in the morning.

Congratulation and bravo Rafael Nadal!! And yes... my wife is very happy that her favorite player wins, especially if it is against Roger Federer!!
