I watched the last half of the match and felt awful for him. I hate seeing someone who's been built up to appear "perfect" fail; he has so much to live up to, that he's bound to fall short at times, and it's somehow really shocking when it happens.
The interaction between the two of them is amazing, isn't it? It was interesting how the commentators call them "Rafa" and "Federer" - regardless of who wins, Roger's earned tat bit extra respect!
