Some of the great analysts of the sport are calling the 2008 Wimbledon one of the best in tennis history. It featured two of the greatest players of not only this era, but all-time. Rafael Nadal snapped Roger Federer’s amazing grass court streak and with that has sparked a whole new level to their rivalry. The two are just so great and have been in the 1-2 spots in ranking for so long that it is really amusing.

If they are able to retain their spots, which seems likely into the foreseeable future (Nadal is only 22 and Federer 26), the two are likely to start future tournaments on opposite sides of the draw, meaning that we may see a lot more Federer-Nadal finals. The rivalry will continue to grow and those matches, like the past few we have seen between the two, are bound to be filled with simply amazing play. Tennis fans are in for at treat as we have seen and perhaps will continue to see a special era of tennis unfold right before our eyes.
