Wimbledon memories: Rafael Nadal's most important victory
Wimbledon memories: Rafael Nadal's most important victory. For the third time in history, the tournament was canceled, but at the All England Club, we lived unforgettable tennis moments and great records. In the beginning, it was the two World Wars that marred the tournament, this year the global pandemic forced the Church Road board to cancel the event. Thanks to insurance taken out in 2003 against pandemics, however, Wimbledon will not suffer economic damage.
Rafael Nadal was the protagonist together with Roger Federer of one of the epochal challenges of modern tennis: the Wimbledon 2008 final. Rafa improved considerably over the years on grass-courts, and that year he won his first historical London title by beating his nemesis at the end of an exciting, dramatic and balanced match, with the final score of 6-4, 6-4, 6-7(5), 6-7(8), 9-7.
This year we should be content to relive the best moments, the best matches, the statistics, the curiosities and much other news about the Championships: but our mind goes already to 2021, with the hope of returning to live the emotions that only Wimbledon can to guarantee.
