	yes, somehow Djoko must have gotten into his head, the number of unforced errors was abnormal. I was a bit surprised not to see Becker make it to the final though No seriously, I must admit it's a little embarassing seeing how these guys cant land a decent volley if their life depended on it. I think a lot of exchanges could have been neatly closed if, after gaining ground, they were just able to take three steps forward and close a volley.

	Nadal had way more forced errors than normal, and Djoko picked the final to produce his best tennis. Pity it wasnt a longer match though.

	Did anyone watch the final? I thought it was amazing to see a match where the longer the rallies, the less likely Nadal was to win them.

	on this years form Djokovic must be due to win it, but I have a feeling Nadal is getting stronger. Wouldnt rule out Federer either because of his record on grass. I voted Nadal but wouldnt surprise me if either of the other 2 did it.

	It's about time Söderling finally wins something big, so why not now? :)

	I know, Murray doesn't really have a chance. But I am still voting for him and rooting for him. Maybe he'll face a blancmange in the final?

	Is anyone a tennis fan here? I sometimes feel like it is a little similar to a good blitz fight, Bxh7 is like a good strong crosscourt forehand for example.
