| @ ZiadM : Federer vs Djokovic game is on of the best tennis matches i have seen in years #RolandGarros |
Amazing. After Djokovic fought through five deuces and won a key game on Federer's serve, Federer comes right back and breaks Djokovic. It's 5-5 in the 4th set.
The Wall Street Journal notes, "It's 9 p.m. local time. Men still playing tennis. Sun still going down. Which one finishes first?"
Sums it up nicely.
