Editorial Review:
World No.1 Rafael Nadal has confirmed his place at the pinnacle of men's tennis following a classic five-set victory over world No. 2 Roger Federer in the Australian Open 2009 final. It was a battle worthy of a major final, and the world's top two players put on a memorable performance before Nadal triumphed 7-5 3-6 7-6(3) 3-6 6-2. It is the third time in the last four Grand Slam events that Nadal and Federer have played the championship match, and again it was Nadal who emerged superior, winning his first Australian Open title.
Australian Open 2009 Mens Final - Federer Vs. Nadal Reviews:
2nd Best Match - Semi Final was the BEST match 
2009-11-11 - Although this final match between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer was very good; the semi-final played between Rafael Nadal and Fernando Verdasco was fantasic! They played for 5 hours and 14 minutes. The scores were very close, and Verdasco played the hardest and the best that I have ever seen him play. I think Rafa was surprise in the beginning by Verdasco's power and tenacity, and Rafa had to up his game even more. However, Rafa did win, and then he had to play Roger Federer with hardly any time to rest. The commenators were speculating that Roger was watching this game on TV and that he could see that Rafa was exhausted, and Roger probably thought he wouldn't have to play as hard as he has had to do in every match he played against Rafa. But Rafa won the final in 4 sets.
This semi-final match should be offered to the public to buy so that those who did not see the semi final match between these two at the 2009 Australian Open could have a THRILL!!!
Great game, though not U.S. version 
2009-11-05 - I had missed this match on TV, so was thrilled to get my hands on the DVD. Absolutely loved watching it, fabulous match between these 2 greats. Will admit, I was disappointed it wasn't U.S. sportcasters commentating or the usual camera angles, or replays, that ESPN or the Tennis Channel offers with Grand Slams. Still, what a treat to see this classic match.
