Congrats to Nadal, amazing tennis from him especially in pressure moments, the question now becomes can he maintain this; because if he can the Nadal, Djokovic and Murray rivalry could be epic in 2014
Terrific match more the first 3 sets than the last
The worrying thing for Djokovic is the way he went away in the 4th set although for parts of this match he did play in his 2011 mode. He has now lost some really big matches this year RG Semi, Wimbledon final and now the US Open final and in all those matches he has had chances to take the match by the scruff of the neck and dominate it and he has not been able to do it. Part of that is his opponents playing brilliantly but another factor is his occasional mental frailty. Really hope he sorts this out.
Great final, happy I woke up for this
