    That was a * war. :56:

    Delighted Nadal has pulled it off. Hard not to feel for Medvedev though, came so close to pulling off one of the greatest comebacks in sports history.

    Mental to think that Federer is genuinely the third best out of that ‘big three’ :giggle1:

    Only saw the first three sets, looking forward to seeing the replay of the final two later.

    Same mate I jumped in bed when it went 2-1 in sets and tbh at that point it felt like Medvedev was looking likely to complete the comeback

    Well i get the strong feeling the GOAT will be thoroughly decided in the next 2 seasons.If the big 3 stay fit Australia is going to be unreal.In my humble opinion Nadal will get to 22,Novak 19 and i do not think Federer will add to his tally in these next 2 seasons.........
    But obviously i could be wrong,that is the game of prediction.

    All depends on the health of the players. I'd expect a fit Djokovic to win another 5/6 Slams.

    I seriously doubt many will say that this time in 2 years. Infact this time next year there will far fewer say that.
    Simply though the jury is out in the next 2 or 3 seasons. As a certain late famous Tennis commentator used to say “We Shall See”

    Not only a Title but to beat Wawrinka in the final and from a set down is pretty much a snapshot of who Andy Murray is.

    Absolute legend.
