Anyone else catch the men's final between Federer and Nadal? Crazy to have those two back on top of the sport for one tournament. I thought both of their careers were basically over, especially Federer who hadn't won a grand slam since 2012 and is 35 years old. Awesome to see those two square off one last time. You could make the argument they are the best and second best players in the history of the sport.

Watched the replay this morning. The way both played, I doubt retirement is in the plans of either one, and look forward to several more matches between the two. Federer looks completely back from his injury issues, and Nadal seems as fast as ever. Great for tennis.
And I agree - best and second best of all time!

Ya this was a great tourney on both the Men's and Women's side. I've been having some sleeping issues and caught a lot of the tourney (big tennis fan as well). Both sides had some really great matches, and dream finals on both sides. I was pulling for Rafa but enjoyed the entire match (besides waking up at 3 am).
