    The way Gonzalez played against Nadal, he would have beat anyone on that day. The question is, did he peak too soon? We shall soon find out.

    Federer is super human, but the way Gonzalez is playing is a bit freakish too. Just depends on who turns up to play in the Final.

    I think Federer will have a bit more competition in this final, but I predict he'll still win. ;)

    Gonzalez needs to think he is playing Haas in the final. Many people are mentally awed by Federer's play, and Gonzalez must not allow that to happen

    One final just finished...

    Maria Sharapova has lost the final match of Australian Open against Serena Williams in straight sets (6-1, 6-2), quite easy victory for williams...

    The men's final is tomorrow.

    I managed to catch a few minutes of the Williams Sharapova game, and it was sheer brilliance from Serena. She outplayed Sharapova in every department of the game, and her power, as always, was her main asset.

    Sharapova felt pretty disconsolate after the game, and Williams...who might have believed that she was unseeded.

    I really wish they make a study on these awesome players.

    The likes of Federer, Schumacher, Tiger Woods, Michael Jordon etc.

    Is it genetics, hard work (i am sure other pro's work as hard as them), or just mentality or something else?

    These days Tennis is 200% dominated by Swiss Roger Federer.
    Though i am not his fan but he is wonderful player even more better than Pete Sampras. Other best boy is Rafael Nadal {he plays more with injuries :p} but he is defeated by seed 10 Fernando Gonzalez.

    But in final i think Roger Federer will once again pick his 9th Gran Slam {OMG} in three sets game. :)

    Let see ;)
