Djokovic won the Wimbledon 2011 Final in what was perhaps his best game ever! The clash between the two best players of the world was very intense, with beautiful balls and high-precision shots from both sides. Djokovic’s movement across the field and his (slightly superior) precision helped him win the first two sets 6-4 and 6-1.
Nadal came furiosly back into the game in the third set, winning 1-6. Nevertheless, he was unable to keep the same game quality in the next set, and Djokovic took advantage of his loose movement to deliver some precise near-corner shots that won him the last set, and with that his first grass-court title! Not to mention this is Djokovic’s first Wimbledon victory!
This victory makes Djokovic stand at 48 victories and 1 defeat this first half year. And what a first half year it has been! He defeated Nadal 5 times so far, and until now Nadal was the best tennis player of the world. This day was so important that even the Serbian president came to London to see Djokovic win. Nadal admitted that he was defeated by the best player in the world, while Djokovic started eating grass and sending his rackets into the crowd in joy!
This match has definitely been a great ending to a great Wimbledon 2011 edition! Now that it’s over, you can still bet on sports this summer, but not that soon on tennis though. I’d recommend you check the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2011, which is happening these days!

I wonder how well Djokovic will do in 2012. He has so many points to defend to keep the number 1 ranking it will be very difficult.
I personally see Roger Federer coming back strong after a great last 4 months.
