The third game of the second set was epic. One of the best.

Yeah I dont think rafa can make a comeback. Maybe the most he can do is take the 3rd but highly doubt it

For someone being dominated, Nadal's been awesome.

Djokovic looks tired. Not looking good for him.

Novak is hurt. This is bad. If he isn't at 100%, I don't see how he can win this.

The quality of some of these points is really quite astounding. The scoreboard shows no indication of a classic match, but wow - amazing stuff. Huge props to Rafa for winning the 3rd set against a player he is clearly inferior to.

Somewhat anti-climatic with all the medical timeouts and injuries :(

^^
I agree, i dont blame djokovic since he seems to need it..
but the whole intensity just died down...Nadal either lacked the killer instinct or just focus due to it.

Wow what a match! Some of those points between Nadal/Joker were INSANE!! :o

Only kinda bad thing was the crowd. Not even a fullhouse for the finals and they just can't shutup on the player's serves especially for Joker. Also as much as I want Federer to win another slam, I'm glad he didn't make it to the finals because he would've got blown off the court by Rafa with the way he was playing. Joker was just too awesome today.
