Probably no other man happier than Rafael Nadal today. He grabbed Olympic Gold yesterday, in a relatively 'easy' game against Fernando Gonzalez 6-3 7-6 6-3, and claim World No.1 today dethroned Roger Federer who is losing this magic touch this year.
But the real final was not yesterday, it is the day before when he beat World No.3 Novak Jokovic, the other potential candidate for No.1 if he can perform consistently. Now, Jokovic will have mountain to climb because at most of time, he has to face Federer before he can reach final in any tournament.
It's a perfect achievement as a tennis player and worth of his consistent performance and, the most important, his patience. He wait patiently for 4 years as World No.2 player and constantly improve his performance in other courts than clay. It's all about timing.
Bravo and congratulation Rafael Nadal!
