WHO"S gonna GRAB da crown of the GRAND SLAM this time??
FINALS-----FEDERAR V/S NADAL &
MEN:Is it the magical game of FEDERER(as he played with RODDICK in the semi-finals) or the unbeatable zeal of NADAL which is gonna take every viewer's breath away.
WOMEN:
Rafael Nadal has overcome Fernando Verdasco in an extraordinary five-set semifinal encounter that lasted five hours and 14 minutes to become the longest match in Australian Open history.Luck was smiling down on 14th-seeded Verdasco who, leading 5-4, struck a backhand that clipped the net. It spun high into the air and - after what felt like an age - dropped into the court. The piece of good fortune awarded Verdasco two set points, and while he lifted his hand to offer a sincere apology, he went on to claim the set with a winning volley.
Two double faults, the last one on match point, proved to be the Spaniard’s downfall, cruelly dashing his hopes of reaching his maiden Slam final.
RECORD SET-The match lasted 314 minutes(5HRS N 14 MINS), an Australian Open record just
three minutes longer than the five hour 11 minute marathon played by Boris Becker and Omar Camporese in 1991.
SUNDAY AWAITED---Nadal, who has reached the Australian Open final for the first time in his career, will now play three-time Australian Open champion Federer in Sunday night’s eagerly-anticipated decider.
Their first meeting since their memorable Wimbledon final last year.
