Very intense at times

Not fair to lump my post where I said it looks over in with those calling him a bottler.
Goat confirmed.
That forehand winner.
My word.

Nostradomus strikes again.

Those last few games were incredible.

Legendary match. Well done Fed, now you truly deserve and have earnt the right to be called the greatest.
yewssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
I'm in tears the big baby I am! The Greatest! Roger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When you put it like that it is a great story, and it'd be a wonderful way for Fed to end a truly incredible career. I've always hoped he had one more slam in him before retirement, and to win it against his greatest rival is just extra sweet.
He finally beat his nemesis to win his 18th slam at 35.
What a story I'm so happy for him

Absolutely gutted with that. Poor Rafa so close.
I'm crying. My throats is sore. Hands hurt. Euphoric.
Going to MCG to see him in person now.

Class. Always knew Federer was better.....
Nadal is never a bottler. Commiserations to him but in my eyes, Rafa is the favourite for the French Open. He's definitely back.
57 unforced errors 
What a match and what performance from two absolute legends! Very well deserved title for Federer
Same, feeling teary eyed.. that was such an emotional fairytale ending. Love the fact he's had to wait so long before finally overcoming his nemesis. True champion materlai stuff that is.
It'd fitting for him to take the French, Wimbledon and US and end with a calendar slam. He deserves to go out on top.
What a match,those unforced errors almost killed Federer.
Aussie Open - Federer
Roland Garros - Nadal
Wimbledon - Wawrinka
US Open - Đoković
that first-to-two end of season - Murray

What an absolute fecking legend.
Fantastic game. I'm literally crying. Wow, that was incredible.
Roger should just retire now. Would top even Sampras.
Hope Rafa wins the French.
It's unbelievable. Roger really is something else. Overcoming his nerves against his great rival. I mean winning a grand slam final against another great player. Wonderful
Has to try for one more Wimbledon so he can have the record outright...
Same. But the way Roger, played, I can't help feel happy for him. Prior to the tournament I would have snatched your hand off at Rafa making the final.
Hate rays from Nadal's eyes.
@Kevin with his classical arrogant "I know what happens anyway" fail. Same story with the NBA finals at halftime and many footballer career predictions.
Absolutely. Still can't believe it!
Federer well deserved.Incredible 5th set.Very proud and happy with Rafa.It's great to see him fighting again for Grand Slams.
Let's see how he does in the clay season
