Granted the level of play was high in the mens final but it gets boring when neither player shows any emotion for 4+ straight hours. I prefer a 2 setter with Nadal over this type of match. Best part was the coverage of Federer, Sampras, Borg, Laver and McEnroe chatting inside the clubhouse afterwards. On the other hand Serena Williams' semifinal was one of the best womens matches ive seen in a long time, just a superb, passionate, entertaining tennis match. I do think something was 'arranged' between the sisters in the women's final (and not just this one between them), their matches together seldom live up to the hype.
