And Feds breaks back! I think Nadal is getting tired.

Match all tied up at one set a piece.

Fatigue has to become a factor for Nadal at some point. Otherwise he's not human.

Nadal did NOT just make that cross-court winner.

Wooo Nadal is asking for the trainer.

I remember hearing Federer would hire like 3 guys in the offseason to train in 50c heat in Dubai. the 3 guys would rotate in and out and Federer would just kept going. Endurance shouldn't be a problem for him.

Oh man. If Nadal wins the match that save for his 5th game in the 3rd set will have been the turning point.

What a hold.

Nadal needs this third set. No question about it.

Probably a match deciding tiebreaker now.
High drama!

Yeah, Nadal might have to let this set go 6-0 and conserve energy if he doesn't break back here.

EDIT: nevermind, that was just sick!

These players are incredible. You think they're down, they come back. You think they're tired and they run down an impossible volley.

Another 5-set thriller. Nothing less was expected.
