Roger Federer beat Rafael Nadal in four thrilling sets today to win his fourth straight Wimbledon singles title. It was "high class" tennis to say the very least. I have to admit that I've made a lot of cracks about Nadal without really knowing too much about him. (Living in the neighborhood with the highest number of steroid users per capita, I am very jealous suspicious of anyone with a Chelsea Boy body.) But after seeing the King of Clay play the way he did in today's final -- on grass! -- and then the way he handled himself after the match, I have to say that I was duly impressed. Most of all, the moment that endeared me to him was captured in this photo above, when after the handshake Roger went back out on the court to celebrate and Rafael flashed a huge smile. That's a classy guy. (AP)
