Nadal Wins at Wimbelton
Breaking a 5 year stretch of great play and good luck by Roger Federer, Raphael Nadal finally broke through and won the men’s crown at Wimdleton Tennis club in a marathon match that was delyaed by rain, went five sets plus, and finished almost in darkness. A true match for the masses.
In the other men’s final, Venus Williams beat her sister Serena. Note that I call it the other men’s final, as these two girls are so significantly more powerful than their competition that it makes it a bit of a joke. Venus has won at Wimbleton 5 times now, a place where the grass surface rewards the most powerful players and punishes anyone who doesn’t have a super fast serve or a powerful forehand.
