Sports: Nadal Needs One More Grandslam Title To Make It Perfect

Last Sunday, it was another glory for Rafael Nadal and a tearful night for Roger Federer... after another tight 5 sets game between the two nemesis, 7-5 3-6 7-6 3-6 6-2 in Australian Open final. It was a hard fight by Nadal to win 1st & 3rd set while it seems so easy for Federer to claim 2nd & 4th set, but the last set was really went to Nadal way.

Came to this Final after his 5 sets game, in 5 hours and 14 minutes, against his compatriot Fernando Verdasco, many predicted Nadal will face tiredness while 2-days break for Federer gave him a better chance to win his 14th Grandslam Title... but in the end, it was not the case.

Probably because of he felt quite confidence enough to win the title after his much more better performance than his last year, Roger Federer got so upset and emotional that he downed with tears. It seems this is the first time the world saw him cried like that so it became big news the next day rather than Nadal's glory.

But Nadal, as my wife said, probably should be thankful to Verdasco, regardless that 5 sets tiring semifinal, because he defeated Andy Murray (who defeated Nadal in their latest match) and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (who defeated Nadal in Australian Open last year), Nadal's potential threat, on his way to semifinal.

With 3 different Grandslam titles in his pocket, Nadal need one more title, US Open, to make his tennis career perfect since not many players be able to bag those 4 different Grandslam tittle, not even Roger Federer who eventhough have 13 Grandslam titles in his pocket - one more short of Pete Sampras record, a great achievement as a tennis player - still not perfect without French Open, where he still failed in Nadal's hand.

Go... go... go Rafael Nadal... chase that US Open title...
