Rain on Sunday forced the tournament into Monday, but the delay didn't do Rafael Nadal's form any harm, as the world
number 1 further enhanced his ranking after taking out a 4-set win over Serbia's Novak Djokovic.
Nadal got off to a flying start, breaking Djokovic in the opening game of the match, only for Djokovic to break back a few
games later to level the set at 2-2. Serving at 2-2, Djokovic found himself under pressure in an epic game that went to
multiple deuces, but in the end if was the top-seeded Spaniard who again found himself a service break to the good.; a
service break he was able to retain for the remainder of the set to take the early advantage.
But after the second set, the match was back on level terms. An early service break by Djokovic got him back into the
contest. Nadal got the set back on serve after another long game saw a service break and the score reset to 4-4, and then
the rain came. But the interruption was brief before the players returned to the court, and another service break by Djokovic
saw the second set fall his way 7-5 and the match level at one set apiece.
Nadal needed to lift, and he did with an early service break in the third set. It would be the only break that either player would
achieve during the set. But as the set went on, a trend began to emerge; with Nadal's service games being easily won while
Djokovic would have to hold out against multiple deuces to hold serve. It was no surprise that Nadal took the set. And with
the two sets to one advantage, the floodgates opened and Nadal breezed through the final set to take a well-earned victory.
The Grand Slam title that had eluded him had finally come his way, as Nadal would become just the seventh player to win
all four mens' singles Grand Slam tournaments, joining an elite club that includes Roger Federer and Andre Agassi.
