I agree with you, on both points.

I guess we are just left to wait two more days to see what the eventual outcome will be, but if anything, it will be a true test for both players to break history and do what was previously thought to be impossible. [whether that means shattering Sampras' open era record of 14 slams (Federer), or actually pushing through his old rival to obtain his first grand slam title since 2003(Roddick).]
