Congrats, Stan! Beating Nole and Rafa back to back is damn impressive! Much respect to Rafa for not retiring either. Turned out to be an entertaining match.
 
IT'S OVAAAAAA

IT'S OVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

Ended up being an entertaining match after all that Set 2/3 weirdness. Should eliminate any asterix claims, Nadal got injured, Stan had a mental chokejob, but the first set Stan was dominating.

Respect to Nadal for fighting through this.
 
New Number 3!

YES! YES! YES!

Fun Fact: Stan was voted Swiss Person of the Year of 2013...many commented that it was out of pitty. But it seems to have been precognition!
 
I'm so happy for Stan, he's been trying to achieve greatness for so long now and finally got it together. His level of tennis has been very high this Australian Open, beating Djokovic and Nadal (even at 70%) is no small feat.
 
Congratulations to Stan!

No one should take this away from him. He was the best player in the 1st set before all this bizarro stuff happened.
 
Stan the Man. First man to ever beat both Nadal and Djokovic in a slam. 100% record in slam finals. Swiss no.1.
 
Wow congrats to Switzerland's... No 1? I guess so.

One thing I will say is that tennis desperately needs to shorten its yearly calendar. These players basically take no break whatsoever and it really shows at the start of the year.
