Rained off again with Nadal two sets up but 5-4 down in the third.I hope Federer wins the next set to make it more a contest.

I rather Federer won, but i rate him so much for coming back! He made some silly shots and not really playing his best.

What an epic final, truly a match befitting of a final.Well done to Nadal on winning but also to Federer for such a strong comeback and making it such a close contest.Great advert for tennis.

Holy CR4P!

I woke up at 6pm after a nap thinking, "Meh, Nadal must have won the championship by now" only to find out that there was a rain delay final set after Federer just got going to even things up.

Tense final set; wanted Roger to win just so he could have 6 in a row, but Nadal was a more than deserving winner.

My knees were tensing up and my heart palpitating as if I was the one playing. Good game.

What a match that was. Both played some great tennis, shame there had to be a loser but at the same time nice to see Nadal take his first Wimbledon title. Credit to Federer, not only on his tennis and getting it back from two sets down but also for being a great sport with his comments.

A huge peak of 13.3 million watched the final last nigh
I never knew it was so popular
The final last year only got about 5million so its managed to get about 8million more viewers this year.

That final was just woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Had an amazing time. Most people wanted roger to win on the hill i didnt i wanted rafa ^_^
Only thing wasthe coach people said once the scheduled matches had finished we had to go back. So some people thought the mixed doubles were a scheduled match so they watched that while everyone else came on the coach and were listening to it on the radio. So if we knew we could have watched mixed doubles i prob would have watched ifinal on hill as the atmosphere was so good
