I sure hope not. My point is that Federer may just not dominate the way he has the last few years. I’m not saying Federer is done and washed up. I sure hope not.

I don't buy into the idea that Federer is over. So he lost a few slams. Tiger has lost lots and keeps coming back ... there are more slams in Feder's history. For three years running Nadal's taken the French and Federer - Wimbledon. Djokocitch might win Wimbledon but I doubt it will be Nadal. And I wouldn't count Roddick out either. I'm looking forward to it either way. ...Dale If Nadal manages a victory at Wimbledon perhaps. I don’t buy into the idea that Federer is over. So he lost a few slams.

For three years running Nadal’s taken the French and Federer – Wimbledon. Djokocitch might win Wimbledon but I doubt it will be Nadal. And I wouldn’t count Roddick out either.

I’m looking forward to it either way.

I only saw the third set, but that was enough for me. Nadal made Federer look so ordinary. Federer's body language said it all. I have never seen Federer so overwhelmed by an opponent. He seemed awestruck by many of Nadal's shots, simply waving at them. Hats off to Nadal. He clearly was prepared and motivated to win it all again. He may be ranked number ONE soon. It was simply an awesome display of power. Certainly Nadal and Federer have great respect for one another. Federer acknowledged Nadal's dominance while Nadal seemed to tone down his victory celebration considerably. Nice to see such mutual respect and sportsmanship. They will play each other many more times, but it is unlikely that those matches will be as one-sided. Or will they? Is this the changing of the guard? Wow!
