Battle on the court

Right now I'm watching a terrific battle between Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal for a place in the finals of the Hamburg Masters Series and, more importantly, for the number two spot in the ATP rankings. The two young gladiators are really slugging it out there on the clay court, producing long exciting rallies and jaw dropping winners. With all the fist pumping and raw emotion, all the drama... it's simply great stuff! I have a feeling though that Djokovic will eventually burn himself out. He simply doesn't have the stamina--not yet at least--to match Nadal's intense physical clay court game. But then again Djokovic can be quite tenacious.
