Not as good as the semi-final but what a player! Congratulations Rafa.

I'm so thrilled for him. the match itself was very low key after the semi-final but even so. It's made my day, he's my hero.

brilliant performance, unless there's a young gun on the horizon only novak can beat him in the french in the near future

Actually, its 12 Grand Slams, equalling John Newcombe. He's won in France eight times, Wimbledon twice and the USA and Australian once each so far. There's only Sampras and Federer ahead of him now as far as I can see.
