A great rivalry

The fascinating tennis story of Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer has only added more punch to modern tennis. Despite being in the autumn of their sporting life, they have proved that they still have the power to outplay younger, talented and stronger contenders. In winning his 16th Grand Slam title, Nadal is all set to make this an exciting match with Federer (Editorial – “Back to the future”, September 12).

The two champions have shown the world why they are among the top tennis players. The fact that they are still playing so well is a pleasant surprise especially when the younger crop of players are still trying in vain to get close to these two giants. These champions have mesmerised us for a long time. Ardent followers of tennis just hope that this dream run continues a little longer.
