).

Verdasco vs. Nadal MC'10

I feel that if Verdasco had begged his master a little more, he would've been given another game...

2008 wimbledon.That match was amazing, i wish federer won.

2009 wimbledon.Roddick made an incredible tournament, beating chardy, melzer, berdych, hewitt and murray.The final was on his hands, i can't forget that 4 second set points, and those 2 consecutive break points in the 5th saved by 2 perfect sevicies from Roger.Andy deserved that title, he played better than rog from the baseline, dominating the points. Federer won that match because he served great on the important points.

Jansher Khan vs Chris Dittmar at the British Open. Jansher won but I really wanted Chris to win one of those. I wasn't a big fan of Jansher Khan though he was an affable person and great player. I had much respect for Jahangir Khan though. A great sportsman without doubt.

I agree.Mac deserved it because he is the only guy that dared to S&V on clay.Only Laver and Panatta, before him, won a FO title with a S&V game.

Yannick Noah in 1983 too.

True.I forgot him.

yeah i would change the verdasco vs rafa 09. would be epic if dasco came back like 10-8 in the 5th. Also what would be cool was if Federer managed to take back RG 2008 being 2 sets down to rafa.

morten · 11-01-2010, 01:51 PM

Edberg against Chang in FO and Coria against Gaudio FO, finals..

Ambivalent · 11-01-2010, 03:31 PM

2008 Wimbledon Final because Fed did everything right in his comeback. Nadal would get his later anyway.

Mustard · 11-01-2010, 04:21 PM

The 2008 Wimbledon final was such a vital match. Had Federer won, the Nadal/Federer rivalry would have continued on the same path it did in 2006-2007. Likewise, if Nadal had won the 2007 Wimbledon final, it would have changed the dynamics of the rivalry a year earlier.

Me too

abraxas21 · 11-01-2010, 04:37 PM

French Open 2007 final.

I'd been content if Fed had beaten Rafa one time at least in RG.

srinrajesh · 11-02-2010, 02:23 AM

BECKER losing to edberg in 89 FO semis in 5 sets

He wud have outpowered chang definitely in final giving him the career slam.. unfortunately he ended up with no clay titles

YodaKnowsBest · 11-02-2010, 07:19 AM

USO final 2007

FO 1989 final. Graf would have won a second Grand Slam in a row. She served for the match ...

Or the AO 1993 final. Had Graf won she would have been #1 in spring. And Seles never would have been stabbed.

I also remember when I was watching it live thinking of how many fairly straight forward passing shots(for a pro anyways) that Wilander was missing. It was probably from the mental pressure due to the way Noah was covering the net and his quickness of getting back quickly for the overhead.
