That has got to be the most one-sided Grand Slam final Federer has ever lost to Nadal. One would never have thought of him losing three straight sets, or even 6-0. A disappointing performance from Federer, though this is not to take anything away from Nadal, who was simply dominant in this match.

He's now equalled Bjorn Borg's record of 4 consecutive titles in Roland Garros. (Borg: 1978,1979,1980,1981; Nadal 2005,2006,2007,2008)

Let's hope Federer picks himself up soon in time for Wimbledon, because if things remain like that, Nadal might just finally beat Federer in Wimbledon. He forced Federer to five epic sets last year, and only narrowly lost out. And then there's always Djokovic breathing behind their necks.
