2009 Australian Open Final--Nadal v. Federer--2 DVDs--5 thrilling sets!!

Description: Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, at the 2009 Australian Open, were bestriding men's tennis like twin colossi. This was their 7th Grand Slam final match-up since the French Open of 2006. This means that 7 of 11 Grand Slams contested since their first match in the Roland Garros final of '06 had been contested by these two. Of these, Nadal won 5. The 2009 Australian Open final was their first Grand Slam contest on a hard court and their first Grand Slam match outside of Paris & Wimbledon. Although Nadal had edged Federer in the previous year's classic Wimbledon final; Federer was the favorite for this match in Melbourne. Federer had amassed 3 Aussie & 5 consecutive US Open titles in previous years. He appeared to be the king of the hill on hard courts. This match was Nadal's first hardcourt major final. Also, Nadal had survived an extraordinary 5 hour plus match in the semifinals against Fernando Verdasco. Federer had received no such challenge in his semi, advancing in straight sets. Surely, Nadal would be fatigued if this match became extended. Well, Nadal proved the pundits wrong by toughing out a victory in this extremely well played match. Nadal strengthened when the match tightened; Federer wavered at points when it looked as if he might take control of the match. Nadal really cemented his dominance over Federer in this match. Federer did not achieve another victory over Nadal in a Grand Slam match until the 2017 Aussie final. Nadal & Federer only contested 2 more Grand Slam finals in the period between this 2009 Australian and now. In the next Grand Slam of 2009, at Roland Garros, Nadal suffered a shocking upset and Federer claimed his lone title there. He also reclaimed his Wimbledon crown at the 2009 Championships. Nadal's 2009 was marred by injury (shades of things to come), but he emerged from that with a dominant 2010 campaign. This match is on 2 DVD-r discs. Buy 2 matches, receive 1 free.
